The best hockey players in the world head to Toronto this weekend for the 2024 NHL All-Star Game on Saturday, Feb. 3 with puck drop at 3 p.m. ET on ESPN+ and ABC. Similar to last year, it’ll be a captains’ draft to pick the four teams for the All-Star Game, with the special addition of a “celebrity captain” for each team. The teams include Team Matthews (Auston Matthews, Morgan Rielly, Justin Bieber), Team McDavid (Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Will Arnett), Team MacKinnon (Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar, Tate McRae), and Team Hughes (Quinn Hughes, Jack Hughes, and Michael Bublé) picking their respective squads from a pool of 36 players. Those four teams will go head-to-head in the All-Star Game on Saturday, which will be divided into three 20-minute games of 3-on-3 hockey. The winners of the first two games will meet in the final to determine the All-Star Game champion. You can watch ABC with a 5-Day Free Trial of DIRECTV STREAM. You can watch with a subscription to ESPN+. You can also watch with Hulu Live TV, Fubo, or YouTube TV.

About 2024 NHL All-Star Game

There were 32 total players selected to participate in the 2024 NHL All-Star game, along with 12 who were voted in by fans – including Leon Draisaitl, Jeremy Swayman, Cale Makar, and Sergei Bobrovsky. Three Leafs players were also voted in: Mitch Marner, William Nylander, and Morgan Rielly, and they’ll join Auston Matthews to tie the record for most players from the All-Star Game hosts since 2002. The Vancouver Canucks are also well represented, with Quinn Hughes, Thatcher Demko, Brock Boeser, J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson all suiting up. Not playing in the game will be New Jersey Devils center Jack Hughes. He’ll be around to help his brother, Quinn, with the draft on Thursday, but will sit out the Skills Competition and All-Star Game due to an upper-body injury. He’ll be replaced by Devils forward Jesper Bratt in the game.

Joining these NHL stars are four “celebrity captains” who will help their Captain and Co-Captains select their team. World-famous Canadian singer Justin Bieber joins Team Matthews, actor Will Arnett will help out Team McDavid, dancer and singer Tate McRae will support Team MacKinnon, and velvet-voiced Michael Bublé joins Team Hughes.

The 3-on-3 NHL All-Star Game will air on ESPN+ and ABC this year, with Sean McDonough calling the game, alongside analyst Ray Ferraro between the benches, and Kevin Weekes and Emily Kaplan on hand for additional interviews and coverage. With four teams competing, the winners of the first two 20-minute games will meet in the final 20-minute championship game.
