competition. The Campbell Conference won the inaugural competition. Individual event winners Accuracy Shooting – Ray Bourque (Boston Bruins) – 4 hits, 7 shots Hardest Shot – Al Iafrate (Toronto Maple Leafs) – 96.0 mph Goaltenders Competition – Kirk McLean (Vancouver Canucks) – 4 GA, 27 shots The game The game, at the time, broke many all-star game records: most goals scored by one team, most goals scored by both teams, and most goals in a period were among the more notable ones. Mario Lemieux scored four goals in the game, three on his first three shots and was the second player in All-Star history to score four goals. The inevitable Gretzky–Lemieux comparisons quickly came up, as Gretzky was held off the scoresheet and was on the ice when Lemieux scored all four goals. Not surprisingly, Lemieux was named the game's MVP.
