Chicagoland native Kendall Coyne-Schofield made history Friday night when she became the first woman to compete in the NHL All-Star Skills Competition.
Coyne-Schofield competed in the fastest skate event for Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon, who has 71 points this season decided to withdraw from the contest after reportedly undergoing an MRI on his foot Thursday.
Coyne-Schofield clocked in at 14.346 seconds for seventh place, which topped one NHL player — Arizona Coyotes’ Clayton Keller (14.526 seconds). Her time was slightly slower than her 14.
