All-Star Weekend ended a little early for Bo Horvat, Brock Nelson and Ilya Sorokin, as both the Pacific and Metropolitan Divisions lost in the first round of the three-on-three showcase.
Horvat recorded an assist in the Pacific's 6-4 loss to the Central Division in the first game of the afternoon. Horvat fed former Canucks teammate Elias Pettersson to briefly tie the score 2-2, but it was not enough to counter a four-point effort from St. Louis Blues' sniper Vladimir Tarasenko. Horvat and Pettersson seemingly teamed up on another goal, but it was called back due to an offside call.
As for Nelson and Sorokin, they bowed out in a 10-6 loss to the Atlantic Division. Nelson had one shot and a block in 5:36 of ice time, while Sorokin allowed five goals on 13 shots, playing the second half of the game after Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin played the first half.
