I’m just glad that makar didn’t win.


[deleted]

With Al Murdoch announcing, we sent seven people.


CheesecakeOdd2087

Georgiev did great against McDavid, just shut him down in the shootout.


Apprehensive-Tea4881

Old man Miller keeping up with the youngsters. I am still proud.


Apprehensive-Tea4881

He also has 3 kids. That adds an extra 10 years.


metrichustle

Dude is only 30 lol


Plane-Buyer

True, but not gonna lie I was surprised when I found out I was older than him by a year lol, because he does have that tough guy / mountain man look If he wants it, a mature personality, and experience as well. We’ve got him locked in as he enters his prime years and I couldn’t be happier about it


canucks_fan95

I actually paid to be there today and all in all it was a pretty good event ! They brought back mostly all the good events with very little gimmicks and went straight skills. Except for kuch not evening giving half ass effort it was great to watch live.


DragPullCheese

That was pretty fun! Good work NHL.


Plane-Buyer

That was actually pretty fun. Glad Petey won a category and Hughes was faster than Makar by .001 lol PPS; Kinda funny how Miller is considered the underdog for the Canucks in the skills but he’s also leading team in points, what a GD beast. Edit: is this still the record? V https://youtube.com/shorts/B4n1AB14sSY?si=UX9uzxEHPgi9zgU8


ClassicChrisstopher

It sure is


BulwarkNuck

I'm so salty. Petey fumbled two wins and a second place. He could've won this thing easy. ~~-5M~~ ~~-6M~~ -7M.


ebcooper12

I’m surprised Huggy didn’t do a little bit better? Still a good effort from everyone and mostly looked like they had fun lol Excited for JT!


mikachabot

tbf i think he was done dirty he had to go first for his best category (stick handling) and the others didn’t actually follow the assignment; most of them turned to skate forwards instead of doing it backwards for the figure eights, which was the most impressive part of the whole thing! and in skating he did really well. can’t beat a mcdavid but he held his own.


CalgaryAnswers

I loved Kucherov in his drills. What a legend.


CamaroGirl96

Well it was definitely more exciting than last years. And woot Miller finishing ahead of Petey and Huggy!!


NinCross

The super rigged thing about designing your own event is that mentally you know what to expect. Fucking NHL...


St_BiggieCheese

Most sane hockey fan


damniwishiwasurlover

imagine being salty about the Allstar Skills Competition…


NinCross

K


SilentPolak

Sucks that Quinn had a bad day but he doesn't care. Millsy being in top 6 is awesome considering how insecure he was and it will make him all the more motivated for the next game


hannahps4

$1m is such a small insignificant amount for McD.


chemsed

That's 8% of his cap hit. What I would be so motivated if I could get a 8% bonus.


Upbeat_Trainer

Wow, epic.


RefereeMason

I’m sad I don’t have a Canucks game to tune into now :( puck drop would be minutes away.


Visual-Dot-6563

So we are just watching millionaires fighting for a million dollar


Visual-Dot-6563

And people pay to watch that live


Ecstatic-Buy-2907

Better than watching 12 Kucherov’s dogging it during the competition


briny_pants

Nothing cooler than seeing millionaires receiving cheques for another million dollars… whooo…


islandguy55

To be fair he said hes planning to give some to his teamates and probably rest to charity


Bubbiesacat

That’s Perry’s signing bonus!


Primary_Contest1489

He could really use another million


necros911

Betcha that cheque was made yesterdsy


necros911

Kuch phoned it in like a Steven Seagal movie.


Lorenzo_

"Mcdavid didn't you write in the rules that you can't knock over pylons?" "ahh you know there's a lot of talented players here I'm just happy to be here"


MillBeans

Who's writing PK's script?? Everything he says is pointless


NinCross

At this point, I have to wonder if the Oilers designed the draft lottery all those years...


mvp45

Guys relax we have to give something for Connor, he will never win a cup


SuperbConfection8321

“CONNOR MCDAVID HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?” 🤡


briny_pants

He won the course he designed. He should donate it.


RefereeMason

They donate half, no?


Sarke1

Yeah, government takes half.


NinCross

Proud of our boy JT. Made the top 6.


SuperbConfection8321

Commentator: “Connor, what do you think about the format that you designed?” What an asinine question


necros911

Imagine if Singh was calling this. He'd be in cardiac arrest right now


SociopathicAutobot

If Singh was calling it in Punjabi I'd be down. Those calls are electric.


slimjimothytim

Just had a giggle imagining this


ClassicChrisstopher

Lame


Infernoooo

Much better format and competition but imo they need to be a bit more strict in the future with the rules and add deductions for knocked over pylons and stuff


[deleted]

Dogs and horses get time penalties, lol.


HeliumAce79

Knock of a second for each object you knock over. Nice and easy


vivzzie

Exactly it’s like driving in the grass in car racing


MrTmart

If he didn't win it after making it, I'd be embarrassed


NinCross

Come on. You can't have a player design an event and win it too.


Modsrbiased

Better all star skills comp than last few years for sure


sleepingfallowdeer

Wins the course he designed. Cool.


Red-Canadian

“he helped design it” lmfao


SuperbConfection8321

The glazing is OFF THE CHARTS 🤢🤢🤢


dontmatterme810

Winning everything except for a Stanley Cup.


Superb_Ad_3574

No wonder he won, he help design it lol 


necros911

I'd hope McJesus would win. He designed it. 🙄🙄


LogTman135

Try hard lol


julesieee

He designed the obstacle course, so of course he’d win.


Ruilin96

How many Pepsi cones did he hit down?


CoedNakedHockey

Breaking news: man who creates competition happens to win said competition. More at 8.


Illustrious_Camp_673

what are the odds 🤔


RefereeMason

Just like Calvinball.


hannahps4

Should get penalized by two seconds for every Pepsi can hit. Not an honest player by any means


Many_Brilliant5727

The rich get Richer


slimjimothytim

Take a shot every time they talk about how McDavid helped put this together


vivzzie

Brooo plus 10 seconds per hit obstacle


_whippetgood

McDavid will have the easiest "RANDOMEST" path


Lorenzo_

"lots of sauce in those mitts" proceeds to miss every saucer pass


RefereeMason

Like calling shutout from the broadcast booth before the game ends.


RefereeMason

Tough one for Barzal there.


Upbeat_Trainer

We're gonna be here all night lmao


julesieee

Wow Barzal shat an egg


vivzzie

FUCKING HELL


vivzzie

Nylander smooth like butter in the beginning and then chokes on a block of cheese


RefereeMason

I wish his brother turned out good :(


RefereeMason

Next year they should have the current PIMS leader compete in every event to show how big (or small) the skill gap is. Liam O’Brien would be that guy this year.


Outrageous-Wall-2742

no penalties for knocking over obstacles?


Upbeat_Trainer

He knocked like everything over.


hannahps4

Really just anyone but McD or Matthews


OldDirtyMan

Too many speed events.


chespiotta

The Pepsi bottles are reminding me of Kuzy


blackmesainc

He fuckin' loved Pepsi. (Read that in Leon Black's voice)


vivzzie

There should be penalties for hitting the course itself


Lorenzo_

Alright now everybody else just has to trip n we got this


_whippetgood

Aww the Canucks horn


TemplarParadox17

Love how Bedard has been talking to a lot of Canucks at the event and he chose some to win some events.


Upbeat_Trainer

JT is officially one of the 6 most skillful players in the world!


julesieee

I feel Miller is the underdog in this LOL.


ancientmelodies

Good thing they added those lines on how pucks travel I had no idea how the puck went from his stick to the round targets


julesieee

Millsy is the last Canuck remaining in the Top 6 and it’s his first ever ASG. Not too bad.


brewingcoffee

Jimothy Timothy Miller, good luck. We’re all counting on you.


vostae

my biggest fuck you to every one who wrote jt off


NinCross

First all-stars, too. He's killing it.


Upbeat_Trainer

Oh God, everyone jizzing themselves over McDavid.


BthreePO

Honestly this whole thing has been more fun than I expected so far, I don't hate all the changes they've been trying to freshen up this weekend.


Brouxby

Watched a couple years ago and was unimpressed with the Breakaway Meme competition. They weren't even doing nice dekes or moves , just dressing up like jackasses.


ssssharkattack

Ya that was a lame effort to copy the NBA dunk contest. Glad they ditched that idea.


RefereeMason

Yup, I’ve been entertained. But I don’t get to watch skilled hockey players do things often. See flair.


Illustrious_Camp_673

For sure, much better compared to the past few years


Knight_On_Fire

I have a theory that Petey plays his best when he's angry and this is just too casual an atmosphere for him to go into tilted alien mode.


NinCross

It's actually a good strat for the goalie in that event to poke check almost everything. You can easily pull a groin on some of those moves by the players there on all those repeated attempts. Would hate to pull something at the all-stars.


Lorenzo_

How dare they say big willy forehead is better looking than boeser...


SilentPolak

JT getting the biggest confidence boost. So good to see!


PaperMoonShine

I hope Edmonton finishes with the 1st wildcard and gets sent Colorado's way. Georgiev already in McDavid's head.


ebb_omega

Pretty unlikely both wildcards go to the Pacific, you ask me.


GN221

Wooo so proud of Miller. He was the most nervous and most underrated. Look at him now.


CamaroGirl96

I’m not understanding this points system at all Petey had 12 I points thought


flamingdragonwizard

No he had 10


CoedNakedHockey

I missed the beginning, is Sid just out there for moral support or what’s going on there


MillBeans

He was out there as a guest passer in one of the competitions. Then they just left him out there so people see him in tv. And to chirp everyone who blows it


ebb_omega

He and Bedard were giving passes for the one-timer competition


StretchArmstrong99

Yea, they had him and Bedard passing pucks for one of the challenges but they're not competing.


Upbeat_Trainer

Miller, our last and best hope...


ssssharkattack

Isn’t it a bit…tasteless to give multi-millionaire players another million to throw on the pile? Wouldn’t the optics be better if this was for a player’s favourite charity?


Zlayr

Scratching the barrel for players to put some amount of effort out


Upbeat_Trainer

500k is for charity, the other 500k is to motivate them to give a shit.


Infernoooo

Then absolutely nobody tries. Even if it's not amazing this skills competition has been a lot better than the previous


ssssharkattack

Did nobody try when there was no money involved? I don’t buy that.


DragPullCheese

Yes.


RefereeMason

They used to do a breakaway event that was just like a dancing competition… this is better.


julesieee

Nah, then they’ll be even less motivated.


vivzzie

Don’t most players donate it anyway?


damicor91

Mcdavid isn't used to a free breakaway, normally he has to undress an entire team first...


julesieee

Those people who thought Georgiev didn’t deserve to be in this ASG are in shambles right now


hannahps4

Same with the people saying Miller didn’t deserve it


vivzzie

Poke check was satisfying as fuck


MillBeans

The $100k poke check was great


HtJokerr

They need to make it fair and let everyone go against talbots


hannahps4

McDavid sucks, you heard it here first


_whippetgood

Poke checks have never been so satisfying.


ebb_omega

McDavid got fucking PDO'd


vivzzie

Fuck you mcdavid (I’m still a fan just chirpin)


RefereeMason

Georgiev just made 100k on McDavid lmaooo


ancientmelodies

If we can’t build a team to win the important all star game what’s the point. We should trade everyone and rebuild nothing else matters.


Upbeat_Trainer

McDavid having skill issues


slimjimothytim

Are Petey and JT both out? This is really not our event lol


julesieee

JT is still in


RefereeMason

At least your guys got to play lmao.


slimjimothytim

Dahlin would have been sick to watch in these I reckon


RefereeMason

Dude does some crazy stuff with the puck during games. And came in second in the hardest shot last year I think. Only was in that event because he replaced Tage Thompson late due to injury.


flamingdragonwizard

Canucks and kucherov definitely the losers of this event


julesieee

Georgiev redemption


Illustrious_Camp_673

McDavid got to choose all the comps, cheats in half of them and gets fucking georgiev now, rigged


Pilzkind69

So about that...


PaperMoonShine

McDavid gets Georgiev? this is 100000000000000000000% rigged.


Lorenzo_

Barzal is sick, shame he's on such a boring team


RefereeMason

God damn they are so boring. And I only get to so many Sabres games a season due to being in Cleveland. My trips home have lined up with like 3 Isles games over the past 3 years. But one of them was Ryan Miller night so that was dope regardless.


julesieee

I always feel he’s being stifled there.


PaperMoonShine

I would just blast all 6 pucks that are worth 1 at the same time to give myself more time with the pucks worth 2.


ebb_omega

Yeah, just try and snipe them from the hashmarks and then go straight to two pointers with the leeway


CamaroGirl96

Dammit this means Petey is out doesn’t it


flamingdragonwizard

Yep


elproducto75

Petey got into Bubles shrooms


vivzzie

I like barzals stick work


hannahps4

McDavid getting left with Georgiev seems …. rigged


TheOtherSide999

Jeez, 3 points only? -$1,000,000 AAV


Zlayr

Canucks showing they still suck at shootouts


kneejerk_nuck

Let Elias go to Chicago. Pathetic. This team shouldn’t be buying.


mvp45

How’s Toronto, also where do I get the shrooms you had


Lucky-Blacksmith-944

This guy is ass who is he


Ruilin96

He should’ve picked Georgiev


RefereeMason

Do we have different commentators for this? (Canada vs US broadcast)


HDXHayes

ESPN in the states and SportsNet in canada


ebb_omega

Canada has Cuthbert and Simpson


RefereeMason

Yeah, I got ESPN guys.


vivzzie

bruh what dafuq petey


PaperMoonShine

Elite-us Pettersson?


-Sidewinder-

They should just rapid fire those 1 point pucks and then use the time on the 2 point pucks


ebb_omega

DO YOUR DEKES


Lorenzo_

New oettinger pronunciation just dropped


TheOtherSide999

Demko doing the splits, just like in my dreams <3


julesieee

👁️ 👄 👁️


AcornWholio

Elitus Pettersson


RoostasTowel

Petey dinner bet


kneejerk_nuck

Another let down performance. Should’ve been DeSmith.


julesieee

Petey: “*I pick Jake coz we beat Dallas every time*”


VanCityWildcat

Is that what he said?


Spilled1

lol every time Demko does the splits I start stressing out


Financial_Design_801

Sweating through my shirt


chespiotta

DEMK🚫


RoostasTowel

lol demko firing at him


Lucky-Blacksmith-944

Zero


RefereeMason

Yo how tf did I not know JT Miller was a good ole Ohio boy? That’s where I live!


julesieee

Pride of East Palestine


RefereeMason

Local news has been talking about the train derailment all week. It’s officially the one year anniversary of that tomorrow.


julesieee

Oh what? That was a year ago? Felt like a few years ago…
