The February 8, 1983 NHL All-Star Game was held at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, NY. Wayne Gretzky would set an All-Star Game record by scoring 4 goals in the 3rd period. The Campbell Conference would go on to win the game 9-3 and Gretzky was named the All-Star Game MVP. Gretzky is considered to be the greatest hockey player in history. He is the leading-point-scorer in the NHL and has more assists than any other player has points. He is also the only player to total over 200 points in one season, a feat he accomplished 4 times. Due to the limited availability in period imagery, Casey Samuelson was unable to pull a photomatch/videomatch confirming placement.
