In an otherwise BORING NHL All-Star Weekend, Juuse Saros made the most of his time in the spotlight. The Nashville Predators' goaltender had a couple of highlight reel moments during the NHL Skills Competition (including a victory in the Tendy Challenge) and the NHL All-Star Game's 3-on-3 tournament.

Was that enough to keep Smashville entertained during the weekend? Today, Nick and Ann discuss the biggest reasons why this year's All-Star festivities felt like a massive dud, and what we would do to make it more fun -- for the fans AND players -- moving forward.

Plus, in late-breaking Preds news, Cole Smith is returning to the team on a one-year extension. We'll break down what that means for the Preds, Smith himself, and what impact this could have on NEXT year's Smashville roster.
