FT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Buffalo Sabres defenseman Rasmus Dahlin and the Atlantic Division won the NHL All-Star Game final on Saturday, 7-5 over the Central Division.

The Atlantic beat the Metro Division in the semi-final game 10-6. As the division's only defenseman in the 3-on-3 game, Dahlin had two shots on goal and an assist on Montreal's Nick Suzuki's go-ahead goal to put the Atlantic up 7-6.
Florida's Matthew Tkachuk had three goals and two assists. Ottawa's Brady Tkachuk had a goal and three assists.
