Pacific downs Atlantic to win All-Star Game in St. Louis
The Pacific Division squad was crowned the 2020 All-Star Game champion as it topped the Atlantic by a score of 5-4 in the final of the three-on-three tournament Saturday night in St. Louis.
San Jose Sharks forward Tomas Hertl scored the winner - his fifth tally of the day - with under three minutes to go in the final frame. Max Pacioretty, Elias Pettersson, and Leon Draisaitl also scored for the Pacific in the contest.
Victor Hedman, Jonathan Huberdeau, David Pastrnak, and Tyler Bertuzzi were the goal-scorers for the Atlantic.
Saturday's triumph marked the third victory for the Pacific since the league switched to its current format in 2016.
The players on the winning squad will split a $1-million prize.
