NHL All-Star Skills Competition 2018: Date, TV Schedule, Format, Events, Players

Before they represent their respective divisions on Sunday in the NHL All-Star Game, the best individuals in the league will put their talents on display in Saturday's NHL All-Star Skills Competition.

Saturday night's competition inside Amalie Arena in Tampa Bay, Florida, features a few traditional skill showcases like hardest shot and fastest skater, as well as a few new events the NHL hopes will catch the eye of the viewer.

Some of the NHL's best players will have a go at the events, including Pittsburgh's Sidney Crosby and Edmonton's Connor McDavid, both of whom achieved success on All-Star Saturday a year ago.
