The ASG has been pretty stagnant for years. At least this way the players have something behind it now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

noodle3872 40 Report post Posted November 19, 2015 The entire All-Star Weekend is a waste to me. Nobody wants to get hurt so the guys mail it in. Little to no intensity, no physical play and everybody over handle the puck in an effort to make pretty plays makes for boring hockey in my eyes. I don't see this nee format making a difference.

Harv 86 Report post Posted November 20, 2015 So if each division gets 6 forwards.. The Metro goes with Crosby, Malkin, Ovechkin, Taraves, Giroux and.. ?Lots of players will be left out. Should be interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neal 41 Report post Posted November 25, 2015 I'll take the CentralForwards:Kane, Toews, Tarasenko, Forsberg, Seguin, BennDefense:Weber, Suter, ByfuglienIt gets ugly because each team has to have a representative. So you're missing Colorado. And if I had to guess, the NHL will want at least two and probably three players from Nashville. So Rinne will be one of the goalies. So maybe Barra is the other goalie? That gives Colorado their representative. Or maybe Suter comes out, Dubnyk goes in and Barrie is the Colorado rep. Yep, that is my guess.Forwards: Kane, Toews, Tarasenko, Forsberg, Seguin, BennDefense:Weber, Barrie, ByfuglienGoalies:Rinne, Dubnyk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's hard to justify leaving Suter out, as he is the second highest scoring defenseman in the west, though I did leave the number one D man off the list too. With such small rosters, someone talented is going to get snubbed, that's just how it's going to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hills 712 Report post Posted December 7, 2015 Ruin good things like the All-star game? You mean where players try to find ways to magically get injured right before so they don't have to play? Or where players try to trip other players (even if they are on their OWN TEAM) so more money is donated for charity? All-star game is already a joke, at least with Scott we will see some personality in the game like we used to get with the player draft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
