The league is trying to change that by copying the format the NHL implemented a few years ago in which the All-Star game becomes a mini tournament involving four teams and three games. Each team will have eight players. Two teams will meet in one semifinal. The remaining two teams will meet in the other semifinal. The winning teams from Game 1 and Game 2 will advance to face each other in the championship. For each game, the winner will be the first team to reach or surpass 40 points. The next voting update will be announced Jan. 9.
