The 2024 NHL All-Star Game comes with a new twist to the three-on-three format.
Four teams chosen by the NHL's top superstars on Thursday night will participate in a four-team tournament to decide the All-Star Game champion.
The All-Star Game tournament format is the same as previous years when All-Stars were separated by their divisions.
Auston Matthews, Connor McDavid, Nathan MacKinnon and Jack Hughes were all named captains.
Team Matthews has a heavy Toronto Maple Leafs presence to it, while Hughes' brother, Quinn, helped Team Hughes load up on Vancouver Canucks players.
