b.shanafan14 733 Report post Posted December 13, 2007 Hasek is 3rd in the Western conference for All-Star voting for goalies. Tell me it wouldn't be a shame if he makes it and not Ozzie? this won't happen, so its a non-issue. This vote is purely for the starting lineup, and Luongo is going to win that one by a landslide. After that, the remaining players are picked on merit and team representation. As much as I would love to see Ozzy in the all-star game because he has thus far earned every bit of it, I don't think I see it happening since 3 Wings are already on course to being in the starting lineup (Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Lidstrom). I doubt the league will allow 4 Red Wings on the ice for the all-star game, even though it would be badass to see how they stack up against the league's best. Of course the all-star game isn't as great for goaltenders anyways, since they basically just get shelled. I would love it if they did with Ozzy what they did with Marty Turco last year and had him mic'd up and talked to him during the game while he was in goal since Osgood is a real charismatic guy like Marty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mudvayneowns91 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2007 That just proves to show that people would rather vote by the name than by the success they've had. But oh well, if it were up to me they'd both play 1st and 3rd period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not only is this the 19th thread on the allstar voting, I think most have caught on that voting is only for the starters, but for some odd reason, a lot of people still think the coachs play a role in picking the rest of the spots. Maybe it's the baseball mentality? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love last year when Turco was talking the whole time. It would be great to have it like that with Ozzie too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
