2016 NHL Skills Competition results: Eastern Conference reigns supreme

The 2016 NHL Skills Competition pitted stars from across the league against each other in a battle between conferences. Players showcased their speed, strength and shot in a variety of challenges. Team East pulled away with an early lead and never looked back, cruising to a 29-12 victory over the West.

Detroit's Dylan Larkin blew past Roman Josi in his heat and went on to break Mike Gartner's record during a solo lap as well. Larkin also earned an extra point for Team East by recording the fastest time in the heats. It was certainly a memorable All-Star debut for the young rookie.
