Having 3 starters hurt their chances big time. I was looking forward to seeing Max in the fastest skating competition...I'm sure Bettman had something to do with this. ****er.

God forbid the selections should be based on who actually deserves it instead of politics.

Is anyone actually planning on watching the ASG?

I would've if Rory got in, but I don't think I'll care enough to watch it now.

Yea, I'm not gonna watch it unless I have absolutely nothing to do.

Its a joke, and the players who are in it are anything but all stars.

PS: Campbell does not deserve to go.

Max doesn't really need the rest. His confidence level would have only rose going to the All Star game.

Yes, I have full intentions of watching all the all star festivities... It's the only all star game that is really a lot of fun to watch still. I suppose the NBA is alright as well, but the Pro Bowl is a complete joke, and well, baseball is still baseball and boring regardless of whose playing.

I will watch it. I think Max shouldve made it too,but having 3 in this game is something we havent seen in recent years...

I thought they had ended that. I guess not. (How else to explain Yanic Perreault?)

It should be called the All-Team Game then.

Miller probably does not belong (at least as a starter) either.

The All-Star games are not a collection of the best players that year in any sport.

It's also a by product of getting half the starting lineup through voting


That's what happens when there is e-voting and ballot box stuffing

:nod: I'm going to watch it to see how these form-fitting jerseys look like on the players remember these are the jerseys that the players will be wearing next season.

I already know the form-fitting jerseys will look dumb as hell.
