Penguins All-Stars Kris Letang And Tristan Jarry To Take Part In 'Save Streak' At NHL All-Star Skills Competition
ST. LOUIS (KDKA) -- The Penguins are sending goaltender Tristan Jarry and defenseman Kris Letang as their representatives to the 2020 NHL All-Star Game in St. Louis.
On Friday, the duo will take part in the "Save Streak" competition.

The goalie with the longest streak of saves will be crowned the winner of the Save Streak competition.
Letang will be the last shooter for the Metropolitan Division since he was recently named captain of the Metropolitan Division All-Stars.
The NHL All-Star Skills Competiton will be tonight at 8:00 p.m.
On Saturday, a 3-on-3 tournament between the four divisions, Metropolitan, Atlantic, Pacific, and Central will begin at 8:15 p.m. beginning with the Metropolitan Division taking on the Atlantic Division.
