given as a gift to VIP attendees at Civic Arena.
The 41st National Hockey League All-Star Game was held in Civic Arena in Pittsburgh, home to the Pittsburgh Penguins, on January 21, 1990. The game saw the team of all-stars from the Wales conference defeat the Campbell conference all-stars 12–7. The Montreal Canadiens were slated to host the 41st All-Star Game, but however withdrew their bid to considerations due to the superb hosting by Quebec City of Rendez-Vous ’87. This had allowed the Penguins, who wanted to host an All-Star Game in 1993, to move up three years early.
For its part, Pittsburgh’s organizers added much more to previous games, creating the first “true” All-Star weekend. Firstly was the addition of the Heroes of Hockey game, a two-period oldtimers’ game between past NHL greats. The second was the addition of the National Hockey League All-Star Skills Competition, a competition between the players invited to the All-Star Game.
This piece of NHL history is an exciting investment that will only get better with age.
