Fan vote fills out NHL All-Star Game roster. Who’s going?

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

The results of fan NHL All-Star voting was announced on Saturday and filled in names that were missing when the league announced one player from every team.

Maple Leafs forward William Nylander, who just signed an eight-year, $92 million contract extension after a spectacular start to the season, is going to the game in Toronto. So are teammates Mitch Marner and Morgan Rielly to join previously named Auston Matthews.

The fast-starting Vancouver Canucks got four players — goalie Thatcher Demko and forwards Elias Pettersson, J.T. Miller and Brock Boeser — to join defenseman Quinn Hughes.

Former Hart Trophy winner Leon Draisaitl (Edmonton Oilers) and former Norris Trophy winner Cale Makar (Colorado Avalanche) also made the fan cut.

Though players were named, they haven’t been assigned to teams yet. The NHL will return to the format of having team captains pick the teams in a draft, which will occur two days before the All-Star Game.

Here is who made the roster for the Feb. 1-3 All-Star weekend:
