There's a lot of stuff going on down in Atlanta this weekend, but here are a couple big things.
The skills competition, featuring some new events, along with the Young Stars Game, will air on Versus from 7-9 on Saturday. The revamped skills event will feature an obstacle course relay, a shootout competition, a new breakway competition that is essentially the NHL's answer to basketball's slam dunk competition, along with the classic fastest skater, hardest shot and accuracy shooting events. As far as I can tell, lineups for these events haven't been announced yet, but I'll get them up when I see them.
The Young Stars Game will be 12 minutes of 3 on 3 action. In last year's game, everyone scored a goal except Malkin, who ended up winning the Calder anyway. There aren't any Flyers in the event, but you can view the full rosters here.
The main event is obviously the actual All-Star game, which will be broadcast on Versus starting at 6 on Sunday. Kimmo Timonen and Mike Richards will represent the Flyers. You can view the full East roster here and the full West roster here.
The full schedule of events this weekend can be seen here.
