Connor McDavid and Taylor Hall are together once again, as the last two Hart Trophy winners and former teammates were named first-team All-Stars following the conclusion of the awards show in Las Vegas on Wednesday night.
Here's a look at the entire first team:

| LW | Taylor Hall (Devils) | 93 |

| D | Drew Doughty (Kings) | 60 |

Hall is one of four players to receive the honor for the first time, joined by Kucherov, Hedman, and Rinne. Hedman was recognized as the league's top defenseman at the awards, while Rinne took home the Vezina as the NHL's best goaltender.
The league also announced the second-team All-Stars:

Other than Subban, all players on the list are making their first postseason All-Star appearance. MacKinnon finished as the runner-up to Hall in the Hart Trophy race, while Hellebuyck and Subban were finalists in their respective categories as well.
