NHL All-Star Skills: Barzal nips McDavid to win Fastest Skater

Louis.

Barzal skated a lap in 13.175 seconds, topping McDavid's 13.215.

"That's a good time by Barzy," McDavid said, according to NHL.com. "Tip your
hat. That's it."

New York Rangers winger Chris Kreider came in third at 13.509, just ahead of
Buffalo Sabres center Jack Eichel (13.540) and Colorado Avalanche center
Nathan MacKinnon (13.895).

The St. Louis Blues' Jordan Binnington, in front of his home fans, won the
Save Streak competition, in which goalies vie for the longest run of saving
skaters' penalty-shot attempts.

Binnington posted a streak of 10 to top the Tampa Bay Lightning's Andrei
Vasilevskiy (nine), the Toronto Maple Leafs' Frederik Andersen (seven), the
Washington Capitals' Braden Holtby (five) and the Vancouver Canucks' Jacob
Markstrom (five).

One of the shots Binnington stopped came from San Jose Sharks center Tomas
Hertl, who was wearing a Justin Bieber mask. Earlier this month, Bieber
accepted a challenge from Binnington to oppose him in a competition of 10
penalty shots. The date and site of Bieber vs. Binnington have yet to be
determined.

"Everybody loved it, and I can say I was Justin Bieber for a few seconds,"
Hertl said.

Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Jaccob Slavin won the Accuracy Shooting event,
hitting all five targets in 9.505 seconds. Edmonton center Leon Draisaitl was
second at 10.257 seconds, and Florida Panthers winger Jonathan Huberdeau
(13.704 seconds), Blues defenseman Alex Pietrangelo (13.763 seconds) and
Detroit Red Wings winger Tyler Bertuzzi (13.868 seconds) rounded out the top
five.

A Canadian women's all-star team topped a U.S. women's all-star 2-1 behind
goals from Melodie Daoust and Rebecca Johnston.

Montreal Canadiens defenseman Shea Weber fired the puck 106.5 mph to win the
Fastest Shot contest. He topped Washington Capitals defenseman John Carlson
(104.5 mph), Vancouver Canucks center Elias Pettersson (102.4 mph), Flames
defenseman Mark Giordano (102.1 mph) and Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman
(102.1 mph).

Chicago Blackhawks winger Patrick Kane won the Shooting Stars target-shooting
event in overtime, with his 24 points topping the 22 of Maple Leafs winger
Mitch Marner and Blues center Ryan O'Reilly.
