The All-Stars of the American Hockey League showed off their considerable skills to open the 2023 AHL All-Star Classic Sunday night in Laval. Here’s a recap of everything that went down.
Event 1: Inglasco Puck Control Relay
The Puck Control relay consisted of two three-player relay race and two solo races, with players taking a puck through a slalom course of cones. The Eastern and Western conferences split the team races, with Syracuse’s Alex Barré-Boulet beating Ontario’s T.J. Tynan and Bakersfield’s Seth Griffith beating WBS’s Alex Nylander in the individual races.
Event 2: CCM Fastest Skater
Simple enough, just as the NHL does it: One lap around the ice, fastest individual time and faster team average time get points.
