All-Star Skills events

Splash Shot

This new event will take place on the beach in Fort Lauderdale, with four teams of two players each competing in a single-elimination tournament. Players will compete head to head, and each player will be required to hit targets before attempting to dunk their opponent in a dunk tank. The player to dunk their opponent first wins -- if there is a tie, the teams will compete again.

Winners: Mikko Rantanen-Cale Makar

Pitch 'n' Puck

Six players will play a par-4 golf hole with an island green, using a combination of pucks and balls. The player with the lowest score wins; if there is a tie, then the player with the longest drive will be declared the winner.

Winner: Nick Suzuki

Tendy Tandem

The eight All-Star goalies will take part in teams of two (by division). Each team will have one shooting goalie and one in-net goalie.

The shooting goalie will take a shot from a designated spot; he will earn three points if the shot goes in the hole, two points if it hits an in-net target, and no points if the shot misses the net. Based on how the shooting goalie does, the in-net goalie will face three, two or one players on a break (NHL shootout rules apply to forward progress); a save earns the in-net goalie's team the full points, which is based on number of players faced.

Play continues until all pucks have been shot, and the tandem with the most points wins. If there is a tie between the teams, the tandem with the most saves wins. If two or more tandems are tied, the winning team will be the one that saved the most 3-on-1's, then the most 2-on-1's. If there is still a tie, then the tied teams will compete in a sudden death round of goalie goals.

Winners: Connor Hellebuyck-Juuse Saros

Fastest Skater

The course is one lap around the full rink, and players will compete in two rounds. The preliminary round will determine which two skaters make the final.

Mike Gartner and Connor McDavid hold the all-time record for most wins, with three, and Dylan Larkin has the record for the fastest time, 13.172 seconds in 2016.

Winner: Andrei Svechnikov

Hardest Shot

Each player gets two attempts to shoot a puck on goal from 30 feet away, and are allowed to skate up from the nearest blue line. The speed is recorded by the NHL puck tracking system. If the system malfunctions or the player breaks his stick on the attempt, he is allowed a do-over. The player with the highest speed is declared the winner.

Al MacInnis has the most wins all time, with seven, while Zdeno Chara has the hardest shot recorded (108.8 miles per hour in 2012).

Winner: Elias Pettersson

Breakaway Challenge

Each shooter will attempt one shot, and a panel of judges will grade them on a scale of 1-10. NHL shootout rules do not apply; shooters can start their routine from anywhere in the neutral zone, and can go anywhere in the offensive zone -- including behind the net. If there is a tie in scores at the end of the event, the tied shooters will take another shot to determine the winner.

Accuracy Shooting

Styrofoam targets are placed in the four corners of a goal, one per corner. In the first round, each player stands 25 feet from the net, and takes passes from two players that are positioned behind the net, attempting to hit all four targets as quickly as possible; a target is considered hit when any contact is made with the shot puck. The four players who hit all four targets in the shortest amount of time advance.

In the semifinal and final round, two nets with targets are placed side-by-side on the goal line. One player next to each net will pass pucks to the shooter. Shooters go simultaneously, and the first player to hit all four targets wins the round.

Winner: Brock Nelson
