Mooker 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2008 Bettman is having chest pains knowing crosby will not make the ASG imagine if there was no game at all!!! Wouldn't surprise me at all if Bettman is looking for a way to put the season on pause until Crosby's back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted January 23, 2008 I think we could make a better team of players NOT going to the game than either of the teams in the game. In fact, let's see which guys I said deserved to go who are not going, and flesh out a team from those guys. G: Brodeur, Luongo, Leclaire D: Rafalski, Zubov, Kronwall, Redden, Spacek, Schneider F: Zetterberg, Stastny, Kane, D.Sedin, Huselius, Crosby, Heatley, Sundin, Jokinen, Whitney, Briere, Morrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edicius 3,269 Report post Posted January 23, 2008 On XM 204, Espo expressed some disdain for the choice of Niedermayer as well, so we're not alone. "Come on, the guy's played 14 games this season...there's no way he should be going when there's tons of guys more deserving." A-freakin'-men. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted January 23, 2008 Phil speaks his mind, so it's good to see not only the fans disapprove. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Danny 155 Report post Posted January 24, 2008 I was watching a game yesterday and the commentators between periods said much the same thing, and called out Rafalski as the one who should be there in his place. Trying to remember which game it was... Minnesota, I think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doggy 130 Report post Posted January 24, 2008 ASG should be after the SCF. Just like the Pro-Bowl. This crap wouldn't happen if it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redwinger4747 6 Report post Posted January 24, 2008 Don't know if this has been posted already In Mlive article, it says Rafalski was ASKED to go to the All Star Game and had to decline BEFORE Niedermayer was invited. This makes me feel A LOT better. http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/20...break_on_a.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
