2. Atlantic Division to win it all

Once the 2020 NHL All-Star Skills competition is over tonight, all focus will switch to the main event on Saturday.

We are of course speaking about the NHL All-Star Game, which is a three-game tournament played in a three-on-three format.

It is always a fun event to watch and this year will be no different given the plethora of young talent in St. Louis.

From Connor McDavid to Nathan MacKinnon to Jack Eichel and Elias Pettersson, some of the NHL’s hottest young studs will be strutting their stuff at Enterprise Center on Saturday and it should be breathtaking.

All four divisions boast an array of potent weapons but I’m predicting that the Atlantic Division will emerge as the main threat and, eventually, come out on top to win it all.

Boasting the NHL’s leading goal scorer in David Pastrnak (37), Mitch Marner, Jonathan Huberdeau, Jack Eichel, not to mention the likes of Victor Hedman and an elite goalie tandem in Frederik Andersen and Andrei Vasilevskiy, the Atlantic is absolutely stacked.

I’m predicting that they will make light work of the Metro Division before taking down the Pacific in the final.

With that amount of firepower and talent between the pipes, I can’t see how the Atlantic Division can’t win it all.
