Corey Perry (Anaheim Ducks) scored the only goal at 13:38 in the 2016 NHL All-Star Game tournament final to earn the Pacific Division the championship in the tournament.

John Scott was voted MVP of the tournament.

The Pacific won the tournament and the $1 million prize pool with a 1-0 victory. Goalies John Gibson (Anaheim Ducks) and Jonathan Quick (Los Angeles Kings) combined for a 17-save shutout. 

"We were mucking and grinding," San Jose Sharks defenseman Brent Burns said. "We want to represent our division. That's the way we roll over there."
