The ballots for the 2016 NHL All-Star Game have officially opened.

The NHL and NHLPA implemented a new format for this year's All-Star Game, which will be a 3-on-3 tournament of three 20-minute games, featuring four teams of 11 stars representing each division (Atlantic, Metropolitan, Central and Pacific). The winning team takes home $1 million.

Fans are allowed to vote up to 10 times a day — as few as one player or as many as four — for one player from each division, and the top vote-getter will be named the captain for their respective division. 

The remaining 40 All-Stars will be named by the NHL Hockey Operations Department.
