Rickard Rakell scored twice and added an assist as the Pacific Division defeated the Atlantic Division 5-2 to win the championship game at the NHL All-Star tournament in Tampa Bay on Sunday night.

The Anaheim Ducks forward opened the scoring just before the one-minute mark of the first stanza, assisted on Drew Doughty's goal that held up as the game-winner later in the frame, then tallied again with less than three minutes left to put the game out of reach.

Brock Boeser chipped in a goal and an assist and was later named MVP of the tournament. Doughty and Johnny Gaudreau also picked up a goal and an assist apiece in the final, while Anze Kopitar had a couple of helpers.

Mike Green provided all of the offense for the Atlantic Division in the championship round, scoring twice in a losing effort.
