Nashville and the Predators played host to the 2016 NHL All-Star Weekend and the world-famous "Music City" did not disappoint. From gorgeous weather to the thousands of passionate and dedicated hockey fans that took in the festivities, the city, the players and the game of hockey enjoyed one of the most memorable All-Star weekends in the history of the NHL.

With a new 3-on-3 format on-tap, the players and fans were in for a renewed passion around the entire weekend. The competition level, the openness and passion displayed by the players and the overall excitement of the entire weekend were off the charts. In addition, it would be difficult to write a storyline as moving and satisfying as John Scott's NHL All-Star experience. #JohnScottForPresident
