The Shootout 2009 NHL All-Star Skills Competition featured Ovechkin putting on a show. He teamed up with his Russian friend and NHL enemy, Evegini Malkin to treat the Montreal crowd to a bit of showmanship and, to be honest, not much else.

The NHL announced some changes to the SuperSkills competition today. The events are being tweaked and one is even being decided via a text message vote. The full rundown of the changes can be found on the NHL.com SuperSkills page.
