Capping off the 2024 NHL All-Star Weekend, Arizona Coyotes forward Clayton Keller had himself a day to remember.

Team Matthews won the championship 7-4 over Team McDavid in Toronto, and Keller tallied a goal with two assists in two games.

Leaving the puck back for Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly, he pinpointed Arizona native Auston Matthews with a pass out of the defensive zone. Driving through the offensive zone and towards Team McDavid’s goal, Matthews found Keller who was open for a tap-in, scoring the first goal of the championship 2:19 in.

Up 4-3, Keller turned on the jets and fed Matthews with the puck for a one-timer 4:59 into the second half of the final.

Making his mark in the second semifinal matchup as well, Keller had a helper on Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner’s goal.

The lone ‘Yotes representative was able to showcase his skill in front of the eyes of all hockey fans, continuing to put Arizona hockey on the map.

Winning the event, Team Matthews claimed the grand prize of the All-Star game, $1 million. In the end, Matthews won the MVP of the festivities with two goals and two assists.

Now, Keller will return to the Valley as the Coyotes will gear up for a battle with the Vegas Golden Knights on Feb. 8.
