Not all of the events are as embarrassing as that one. I also suspect some were interested to see if Gaudreau would do something memorable.

Voracek using Gaudreau for an imitation was hilarious, but that was most definitely not a display of skill. Pretty much a blooper reel.

I thought Johnny would've done something crazy on his last attempt. Looks like he was just trying not to embarrass himself.

LOL, I already turned it off.

I think I'm gonna dig up my Beachcombers box set, and revel in the misadventures of Relic, Nick and Jesse.

I thought it was fun. Gotta balance goofiness and skill.

I liked the selfie.

I'm confused. Johansen didn't knock them all down but somehow the clock stopped and he won the round?

Him lighting the stick on fire was his third attempt. The PA and arena hadn't signed off on proper waivers I imagine, do instead he does nothing on third attempt.

I think everyone shoots in the shootout at the end, so will see him again.

Don't have to knock it off. Pucks just gotta hit it.

Fairly humorous. It's good to lighten up the event and show the personalities of NHL players, as it is one thing that separates NHL from other sports.
Surprised no one dominated the target shooting.

Why do they bother with an intermission and ice cleaning?

Its been fun to watch. We've been laughing here during the shootout part. Brian Elliott stole the show IMO.

Because the ice is really bad already, probably.

This guy's quote btimbit. That should be the (sort of) serious attempt.

I remember a clip of baertschi I think at the junior skills competition where he does a between the legs shot top self with only one hand on his stick and he scored too. It was impressive.
