The Metropolitan All-Stars won the All-Star Game. The all-star game, which in the past has pitted Eastern Conference against Western Conference, North American against World players, or team captains who pick their teams, had its second straight year of a four-team, 3-on-3, single elimination format, with one team representing each of the league's four divisions. Wayne Simmonds of the Philadelphia Flyers was named the Most Valuable Player, scoring three goals in two games, including the game-winning goal in the championship game.
