The 2022 NHL All-Star Fan Vote ended Saturday with the captain for each of the four divisions being selected.

The four captains, the full All-Star Game rosters and candidates for the Last Man In vote will be announced during ESPN's 6 p.m. airing of "SportsCenter" on Thursday.
Before that happens, NHL.com staff writers and editors have
revisited their picks
made at the start of the voting period to see what the final rosters for the 2022 Honda NHL All-Star Weekend in Las Vegas on Feb. 4-5 could look like.
The NHL.com staffers voted on an 11-player lineup for each division. Each lineup had to have six forwards, three defensemen and two goalies. One player from each team in the division had to be selected.
The 2022 All-Star Game will once again consist of a three-game tournament, played in a 3-on-3 format, featuring four teams, one from each division.
Here are the NHL.com panel results:

Atlantic Division

Forwards
Steven Stamkos, Tampa Bay Lightning
Jonathan Huberdeau, Florida Panthers
Auston Matthews, Toronto Maple Leafs (captain)
Brad Marchand, Boston Bruins
Lucas Raymond, Detroit Red Wings
Drake Batherson, Ottawa Senators
Defensemen
Aaron Ekblad, Florida Panthers
Rasmus Dahlin, Buffalo Sabres
Chris Wideman, Montreal Canadiens
Goalies
Andrei Vasilevskiy, Tampa Bay Lightning
Jack Campbell, Toronto Maple Leafs
Others receiving votes: forwards Tage Thompson (Sabres), Nick Suzuki (Canadiens); defensemen Victor Hedman (Lightning), Thomas Chabot (Senators), David Savard (Canadiens), Charlie McAvoy (Bruins)
Scouting report: There are two changes to the roster in this round of voting: Batherson is in for Tyler Toffoli of the Canadiens at forward and Wideman is in for Chabot at defenseman. This is still a team to be reckoned with, anchored by Vasilevskiy, the goalie for each of the past two Stanley Cup championships. How good is this team? Hedman, a perennial Norris Trophy candidate and another bedrock of the Lightning dynasty, didn't make the final cut. Campbell is the other goalie, and he has been near the top of the NHL in save percentage and goals-against average most of the season, but it's a question as to whether either goalie will even see the puck, as the forwards are likely to spend quite a bit of time in the offensive zone. Huberdeau, Stamkos, Matthews and Marchand are each averaging better than a point per game this season.

Metropolitan Division

Forwards
Alex Ovechkin, Washington Capitals (captain)
Artemi Panarin
, New York Rangers
Jake Guentzel, Pittsburgh Penguins
Sebastian Aho, Carolina Hurricanes
Claude Giroux, Philadelphia Flyers
Chris Kreider, New York Rangers
Defensemen
Adam Fox, New York Rangers
Dougie Hamilton, New Jersey Devils
Zach Werenski, Columbus Blue Jackets
Goalies
Ilya Sorokin, New York Islanders
Frederik Andersen, Carolina Hurricanes
Others receiving votes: forwards Jack Hughes (Devils), Evgeny Kuznetsov (Capitals), Sidney Crosby (Penguins), Mathew Barzal (Islanders) Oliver Bjorkstrand (Blue Jackets); defensemen Kris Letang (Penguins), Jaccob Slavin (Hurricanes); goalies Igor Shesterkin (Rangers), Tristan Jarry (Penguins)
Scouting report: This team will be strong from the goal out with Sorokin and Andersen and three of the best puck-moving defensemen in the NHL in Fox, Hamilton and Werenski, which is essential in 3-on-3 play. The forwards should produce plenty of scoring with Ovechkin, Kreider in the top 10 in goals and Panarin and Ovechkin among the leaders in assists. Ovechkin was first among forwards and Fox, the reigning Norris Trophy winner as the NHL's best defenseman, was first among defensemen on each of the four ballots. The only change in voting from the first exercise was Andersen replacing Shesterkin as one of the two goalies.
Voters: Tom Gulitti, Adam Kimelman, Mike Morreale, Bill Price

Central Division

Forwards
Kirill Kaprizov, Minnesota Wild
Nazem Kadri, Colorado Avalanche
Vladimir Tarasenko, St. Louis Blues
Nathan MacKinnon, Colorado Avalanche (captain)
Kyle Connor, Winnipeg Jets
Joe Pavelski, Dallas Stars
Defensemen
Cale Makar, Colorado Avalanche
Roman Josi, Nashville Predators
Shayne Gostisbehere, Arizona Coyotes
Goalies
Juuse Saros, Nashville Predators
Marc-Andre Fleury, Chicago Blackhawks
Others receiving votes: forwards Alex DeBrincat (Blackhawks), Jordan Kyrou (Blues), Patrick Kane (Blackhawks), Matt Duchene (Predators); goalies Connor Hellebuyck (Jets), Darcy Kuemper (Avalanche)
Scouting report: This team has an abundance of speed and elite hands at forward, particularly with the addition of MacKinnon and Tarasenko. They replace DeBrincat and Kyrou, respectively. MacKinnon and Kadri have been focal points of one of the most prolific offenses in the NHL and could be fearsome if paired together. Kaprizov, the Calder Trophy winner as NHL rookie of the year last season, has been playing at an even higher level in the first half of this season. Add in the elite, veteran hands of Tarasenko and Pavelski and the potential for all-star plays is off the charts. On defense, Makar is a human highlight reel already. The open ice of the 3-on-3 format is a perfect showcase for his skill, speed and vision. Saros polled unanimously as the Central's starting goalie and has been instrumental in Nashville's unexpected rise.
Voters: Jon Lane, William Douglas, Tracey Myers, Tim Campbell

Pacific Division

Forwards
Connor McDavid, Edmonton Oilers (captain)
Leon Draisaitl, Edmonton Oilers
Troy Terry, Anaheim Ducks
Johnny Gaudreau, Calgary Flames
Mark Stone, Vegas Golden Knights
Yanni Gourde, Seattle Kraken
Defensemen
Drew Doughty, Los Angeles Kings
Quinn Hughes, Vancouver Canucks
Erik Karlsson, San Jose Sharks
Goalies
Jacob Markstrom, Calgary Flames
Thatcher Demko, Vancouver Canucks
Others receiving votes: forwards Tomas Hertl (Sharks), Timo Meier (Sharks); defensemen Alex Pietrangelo (Golden Knights), Shea Theodore (Golden Knights), Mark Giordano (Kraken)
Scouting report: There are three changes to the roster in this round of voting. Stone, perhaps one of the best two-way forwards in the game and a fan favorite in Vegas, replaces Anze Kopitar of the Kings. Doughty, who has not missed a beat since returning from injury, replaces Pietrangelo, and Demko, who was the hottest goalie in the month of December, with a 7-1-0 record, a 1.72 GAA and .946 save percentage, replaces John Gibson of the Ducks. It is offense that will drive the Pacific Division. McDavid and Draisaitl finished one-two in points last season and have been in those spots virtually since the start of this season. Terry has scored more than 20 goals for the first time in his NHL career and had a 16-game point streak (22 points -- 12 goals, 10 assists) from Oct. 18-Nov. 18. This team scores, skates and defends well. It is experienced in how 3-on-3 works in the All-Star Game. It's a favorite.
