Ways to fix what is becoming a joke

I was watching the AHL Skills Competition today and I found it much more exciting and the fans we're into it.
The NHL Should do everything that AHL does....

1. Bring back the Puck Control Relay
2. Fastest Skater (NHL Does)
3. Goalie Rapid Fire (Goalie stops consecutive shots by going side to side in the crease)
4. Hardest Shot (NHL Does)
5. Accuracy Shooting (NHL Does)
6. 3 on 0 Pass and Shoot (Each player has to touch the puck at least once and then shoot on the goalie)
7. Breakaway Relay (NHL Does kinda) Get rid of the NBA Slam Dunk contest moniker it's not going to work, and just have them do a normal shootout and try to score and if the players want to do something crazy to try score let them do it.

It was much more fun to watch and i'm sure the fans would love it to also listening to Pierre McGuire last night on Sportscenter he was talking about what if the NHL brought the CHL Top Prospects game to the All Star game and have it being played on the Friday night it would be a meaningful game and what better place to show it off then in an NHL rink where the fans can see the next crop of talent.
