Maple Leafs' Carlton The Bear and Rest of the Mascots to Compete in Ice Hockey Game During NHL All-Star Weekend

The NHL mascots are a big part of the NHL All-Star Weekend and with the 2024 edition set for Toronto next month, there will be no exceptions.

Carlton The Bear and the other 29 NHL mascots (two teams do not have one) will take part in events as part of the NHL Fan Fair that takes place from Feb. 1-4 at Metro Toronto Convention Centre. 

The big event will see a mini parade from the convention centre to Scotiabank Arena on Feb. 2 where the mascots will participate in their own All-Star game immediately after the NHL All-Star Skills contest concludes.

Fans will be able to stream that game on the NHL's YouTube channel with NHL in-arena host Mike Todd providing commentary.
