LAS VEGAS – On Friday, at the NHL All-Star Weekend’s Media Day, Chris Kreider was talking about how loaded the Metropolitan Division is this season, with the Rangers and Carolina Hurricanes and Pittsburgh Penguins and Washington Capitals all battling to get to the top of the division.
On Saturday, Kreider and his Metropolitan Division teammates may have proved, to an extent, how right he was, as the Metropolitan Division team won both of its games in the 3-on-3 All-Star Game format to win the championship of the All-Star Weekend contest at T-Mobile Arena.
