Metropolitan Division roster

There's a very good chance that Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin and Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby will be on a line together, putting two of the three active 500+-goal scorers in the league on the ice at once. New Jersey Devils young star Jack Hughes is quickly rising up the betting boards as a Hart Trophy candidate (+3500 at DraftKings Sportsbook) and is on pace for a 50-50 season.

The Metropolitan has five first-time All-Stars with both goalies New York Rangers Igor Shesterkin and New York Islanders Ilya Sorokin playing in their first All-Star games. Shesterkin is joined by teammates Artemi Panarin and Adam Fox, both first-time All Stars as well.
