NASHVILLE — Given the 3-on-3 format and the amount of talent on the ice at Bridgestone Arena on Sunday, nobody could have predicted that one goal would be scored in the championship game of the 2016 Honda NHL All-Star Game.

Anaheim Ducks forward Corey Perry was the only player to score in the Pacific Division’s 1-0 win against the Atlantic Division.

Perry scored at 3:38 of the second period when he took a pass from Vancouver Canucks forward Daniel Sedin just outside the offensive zone, skated to the right circle and beat Tampa Bay Lightning goalie Ben Bishop with a low wrist shot to the far side.

NASHVILLE – Jaromir Jagr wasn’t sure if he wanted to make the trip to Nashville.

The 43-year-old forward, who turns 44 on Feb. 15, wanted to take the time to get himself physically ready for the rest of the season. His Florida Panthers (29-15-5) are in first place in the Atlantic Division and are looking to make the postseason for the first time since 2011-12.

When it was all said and done, Jagr, Atlantic Division captain, was glad he played in the 2016 Honda NHL All-Star Game. He backchecked and scored a highlight-reel goal with 38 seconds left in the first half of the Atlantic Division’s first game on Sunday.

En el primer enfrentamiento entre divisiones Jaromir Jair no estaba seguro si queria hacer el viaje a Nashville….Pero el veterano de 43 años, quien cumpliar los 44 el 15 de febrero próximo, penso inicialmente en descansar para enfrentar el resto de la temporada con su equipo. Pero Jagr acepto el reto y respondió con toda su calidad anotando a los 38 segundos del primer partido de la jornada.

NASHVILLE — The smile that flashed across John Scott’s face again and again throughout the 2016 Honda NHL All-Star Game was the perfect symbol of his adventure at Bridgestone Arena on Sunday.

Scott scored twice in the first game, a 9-6 victory against the Central Division. He also had the game’s only hit, flattening Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane. The two playfully fought a few minutes later, after Kane scored, but neither was penalized.
