Kelvin Kuo / USA TODAY Sports

As expected, Connor McDavid won the fastest skater event at the NHL All-Star Skills Competition in Los Angeles, winning his head-to-head matchup with Nathan MacKinnon with a time of 13.02 seconds.

McDavid was given the opportunity to break the record held by Dylan Larkin moments after his race, but came up just short.

Nevertheless, the Edmonton Oilers superstar bagged two points for the Pacific, which matched the two earned by the Atlantic courtesy of Nikita Kucherov and Vincent Trocheck defeating Cam Atkinson and Wayne Simmonds, respectively.

Patrik Laine earned one point for the Central in a photo finish with Bo Horvat.
