The World Hockey Association All-Star Game was held in the Hartford Civic Center in Hartford, Connecticut on January 18, 1977. The game pitted the Western Division All-Stars against the Eastern Division All-Stars. The Division Most Valuable Player Awards were given to Willy Lindstrom (Western) and Jean-Louis Levasseur (Eastern). Jean-Louis Levasseur had been named an All-Star of the Eastern Division when playing for the Minnesota Fighting Saints before the team announced their folding in January 1977. He was sold to the Edmonton Oilers but the WHA allowed him to play for the Eastern Division.[1][2]
