WingsallTheway 383 Report post Posted January 25, 2008 how is rafalski not in the allstar game? he is just behind lidstrom in points and is second in the league... 5th in +/- and he isnt doing bad when it comes to goals either i just think that people should take notice to rafalski because he is a great defencman, and even if he hasnt been named an all star starter, he should have atleast been named to the game with all of these people not showing up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Opie 308 Report post Posted January 25, 2008 There are about three threads that talk about this, however, Ralf opted out, he was asked and said he had family plans. I believe it was family plans, may have been something else, but I am almost positive it was! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toby91_ca 620 Report post Posted January 25, 2008 He's not the only guy that got bumped because mutiple teammates were going. Malkin for example. He's 13th in league scoring and wasn't selected. He's going now, but wouldn't have been if Crosby didn't get hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only on LGW do we bash the best players in the league and then wonder why the rest of the world doesn't take them seriously. OK, maybe it isn't only us. I can't say I get to other boards at all, but the point was well made, NFM25. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thedisappearer 291 Report post Posted January 25, 2008 (edited) hell its pathetic he's even allowed to play in this season in general, NHL really is letting the Ducks get away with alot Yeah, why do they get to resign free agents? the league is so biased. I heard somewhere they are allowed to draft players who were amatuers and hadn't been drafted by another team. Geez, hand them the Cup next time. There's talk abot Forsberg coming back. Same with D-Mac. What is the difference? Hell, Nieds was still under contract to the Ducks, right? Are you saying it's unfair he was allowed to play out his contract?
