Islanders News: Barzal fifth in Skills, playing for home team today

Mat Barzal, a last-minute addition to the All-Star Skills, showed that he belonged and should’ve been a participant from its inception.

He was in the top three through the final round, the obstacle course. And in fact, he was pacing well through the obstacle course, but then… the tiny nets.

The lone representative from the New York Islanders showed well, but he ended up finishing fifth. Still impressive though, especially for an injury replacement.

Watch Barzal and Team Matthews/Bieber compete in this year's #NHLAllStar Game!
