Nhl Skills Competition

[Lathum]

Overall I find this alot of fun to watch, but on what planet is this competition fair to goalies.

I feel bad for the goalies in general in the NHL All star weekend.

I love the skills comp. It shows how good those guys really are.

I like the Young Stars game but I can't figure out why the heck they went 5-on-5 this year. Last year, 4-on-4, was about as exciting as you could get.

I like the fact that MacInnis, at 39, using an old-fashioned wood stick, still had the hardest shot.

[DeToxRox]

yeah, the young guns game was so insane last year 4 on 4.

Ilya Kovalchuck put on a freakin' show.

[RPI-Fan]

The hardest shot competition has to get more consistent. I think they don't calibrate the guns the same each year. I don't think McInnis and Federov lost 4-5 MPH off their slapshot for no reason.

Definetly fell for the goalies. I was in shock when they had the 3 on 0 competition! I mean how many times does that happen in a game?!

For most teams? Never. For the Leafs, maybe three or four times, tops.
