Vegas Golden Knights forward Max Pacioretty will be taking part in his first NHL All-Star Game this weekend and all eyes will be on the forward.

After emerging as the Vegas Golden Knights’ best player during the first-half of the 2019-20 regular season with 47 points (21 goals, 26 assists) in 52 games, Pacioretty will get the chance to showcase his talents on the big stage over the next few days.

It is a well deserved honor for the veteran who has been outstanding for the Knights on and off the ice this year, while he has also been a model professional throughout his career.

So, it is about time that Pacioretty gets his moment in the spotlight and he will get his due this weekend along with some of the elite talent in the NHL.

The only negative heading into the weekend is the fact that Pacioretty isn’t due to take part in any of the events during the NHL Skills Competition tonight, which is a real shame.

It would have been a hell of a lot of fun to watch Pacioretty attempt to best Shea Weber in the Enterprise NHL Hardest Shot, or try his luck in the Honda NHL Accuracy Shooting event.

As it is, we will just have to settle for watching Pacioretty strut his stuff at three-on-three in the NHL All-Star Game on Saturday instead.

And, on that note, let’s delve into three bold predictions we have for Max Pacioretty throughout the 2020 NHL All-Star Game festivities…
