All-Star Game selections

The National Hockey League All-Star Game is a mid-season exhibition game held annually between many of the top players of each season. Twelve All-Star Games have been held since the Winnipeg Jets franchise entered the league as the Atlanta Thrashers in 1999, with at least one player chosen to represent the franchise in each year except 2002. The All-Star game has not been held in various years: 1979 and 1987 due to the 1979 Challenge Cup and Rendez-vous '87 series between the NHL and the Soviet national team, respectively, 1995, 2005, and 2013 as a result of labor stoppages, and 2006, 2010, and 2014 because of the Winter Olympic Games.[11] The franchise hosted one of the games while it was in Atlanta. The 56th took place at Philips Arena.
