It's a jam-packed, three-day event for the All-Star activities from Thursday through Saturday.
On Thursday, four teams captained by two NHL players and one guest star drafted the rest of the 32 NHL All-Stars to their team.

NHL All-Star Game rosters 2024
Team Hughes
The brothers Hughes are together for the 2024 NHL All-Star Game. The squad is co-captained by Devils center Jack Hughes and Canucks defenseman Quinn Hughes. While Jack will be a captain on the team, the New Jersey star will not be participating in the game as he continues to battle back from an injury.
With the middle Hughes brother unable to perform, Quinn's teammate in Vancouver, Elias Pettersson, has been tabbed as an assistant captain for the team.
The pair of Hughes siblings will be joined by singer Michael Buble as the celebrity guest.

Team Matthews
The Toronto faithful have a number of representatives at the event, but I would imagine a majority of Leafs fans are pulling for Team Matthews. Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews is the captain, with Toronto teammate Morgan Rielly set to serve as assistant captain.
The celebrity guest for Team Matthews is another Toronto sensation and one of Matthews' best buddies — singer Justin Bieber.
