Thomas enjoys first All-Star experience

Robert Thomas had a blast in his first career NHL All-Star appearance – in his hometown of Toronto – over the weekend.

Thomas was selected to play for Team McDavid on Thursday night at the NHL All-Star Fantasy Draft, then suited up with some of the League’s biggest names such as Edmonton’s Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, Boston’s David Pastrnak, Florida’s Sergei Bobrovsky, Winnipeg’s Connor Hellebuyck and more.

In the 3-on-3 NHL All-Star Game tournament, Thomas and Team McDavid trailed 3-1 in the final minute of the first game but mounted a shootout comeback victory against Team MacKinnon to advance to the final.

Against Team Matthews in the final, Thomas’ team fell 7-4.

All in all, it was an incredible weekend for Thomas – one he won’t soon forget.
