[edit] Notes

  • Owen Nolan's third period goal happened on a breakaway; as he closed in on Eastern goaltender Dominik Hasek, Nolan pointed in Hasek's direction in an imitation of Babe Ruth's called shot and then fired the puck high to the glove side to end the West's frustration from not scoring all period despite peppering Hasek with shots. Nolan would later admit that his point wasn't in fact a "called shot", but that he was basically asking Hasek to give him a break after missing two breakaways earlier in the period.
