Viewership of this year's NHL All-Star Game (5:03-8:27 p.m. ET) from Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn., was up 34% vs. 2015 (1.194 million). This year's viewership peaked in the 6:30-6:45 p.m. ET quarter hour, as 1.89 million viewers watched John Scott score a pair of goals in the Pacific Division's 9-6 win against the Central Division.

The Pacific Division went on to win the All-Star Game with a 1-0 victory in the championship round over the Atlantic Division, which defeated the Metropolitan Division 4-3 in the tournament's first game. This year marked the introduction of the 3-on-3 tournament format to the All-Star Game, inspired by the NHL's new 3-on-3 overtime format, which began this season.
