NHL All-Star Game 2022 Preview
The return of the NHL All-Star Game, after COVID-19 restrictions put it on hold for a year, will feature some of the game’s newest stars.
That includes high-flying scorer Kirill Kaprizov of the Minnesota Wild and Cale Makar of the Colorado Avalanche. Kaprizov tallied 51 points in 55 games last season as a rookie. He already has 53 points in just 40 games this season. Makar has 44 points in 40 games this season — his third with the Avalanche.
“It’s a lot of fun for me, a lot of fun for all the players that get to participate,” Kaprizov said per NHL.com’s David Satriano. “It’s a good time. We get to hang out with all the other players. For me personally, it’s my first time here in the NHL, and so it’s a great honor and I’m looking forward to it.”
Overall, the 21 first-time All-Stars will play in Saturday’s game. Other first-timers include New Jersey’s Jack Hughes, Pittsburgh’s Jake Guentzel, Washington’s Tom Wilson, Montreal’s Nick Suzuki, Buffalo’s Rasmus Dahlin, and Toronto’s Jack Campbell for the Eastern Conference teams.
St. Louis’ Jordan Kyrou, Nashville’s Juus Saros, Minnesota’s Cam Talbot, Colorado’s Nazem Kadri, Chicago’s Alex DeBrincat, and Winnipeg’s Kyle Connor will make their first appearances with the Western Conference Central Division team.
First-timers on the Pacific Division team include San Jose’s Timo Meier, Vegas’ Mark Stone, Anaheim’s Troy Terry, Vancouver’s Thatcher Demko, and Vegas’ Jonathan Marchessault.
Seattle’s Jordan Eberle, a two-time All-Star, also has a first of sorts.
“It’s a huge honor being selected as the Kraken’s first-ever All-Star,” Eberle said per Satriano. “Our fans have been so amazing this season. Climate Pledge Arena has been one of the loudest buildings in the League. Their support means so much. I’m excited to represent them in Vegas.”
