kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 Haven't seen a thread on this (hope I'm not breaking any rules).. Of course I don't need to say this but just a friendly reminder for everyone to vote for our Red Wings for the all star game! Personally I've throwing a lot of votes for Zetterberg as he is our captain and is one of the most underrated players in the NHL and truly deserves to get a spot after carrying the team for two years straight since Lidstrom departed. I know Z is on a bit of a cold streak, but aside from that he needs more recognition from the league! We all know Pavs already making that roster! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteLightning91 105 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 I would much rather none of the Wings go. Rather, they should enjoy a relaxing vacation or rest an injury. Taking part in the NHL sponsors weekend long circle jerk that is the All Star game seems counter productive. Can we cast negative votes for the Wings somehow? 2 dragonballgtz and F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vladinator16 236 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 I think everybody should vote for nothing but goons, Turn the All Star Game into the Brawl Star Game and then it might actually be worth watching. Never really cared for the All Star Game, the skills competition yes but the actual All Star Game never really interested me. 1 amato reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RusDRW 155 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 I think it would be nice for one of our young players to go there, e.g. Tatar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't even know where to vote for that thing so that gives a good impression of how much I care about the ASG. The skills and hardest shot competition is nice everything else meh. I'd rather see none of the Wings there, give them a nice vacation and focussing on the stuff that really counts. But I like the Brawlgame-Idea at least it would be entertaining to watch. 1 puckloo39 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 Lineup completed: McGrattan - Reaves - Gazdic Engelland - Carkner Josh "I kick Walls" Harding You need to submit it ten times a day until they close voting..if I were bigger into social media I'd try to get that out there, just because it'd be hilarious.I basically wasted my votes on Jurco and tats and Mrazek. I also threw mcgrattan in there with kronwall and Dalton prout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same here as someone who hates social media, that would be one heck of an All-Star lineup and hilarious if it got enough votes to actually send the players to Columbus.

Wings players never want to play in the ASG. But if they're healthy, whoever gets voted in should play. It's supposed to be for the young fans, and it makes players look arrogant when they pass up on an honor like that. BTW, you have my favorite sig of any poster here.

WingsallTheway 383 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 Id rather just Dats go, I like seeing him in all the skills competitions. Not very often you get a player with his skill set placed in an environment where he gets a chance to show off. (Even though he never does, I always hope) Everyone else I'd rather take the time off.

In the last comp he was in didn't he just do the stick handling relay... ..kind of a waste to have Pavel datsyuk there to do one thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ami 273 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 NHL should allow fans to choose their 'star' referee too. Why not? There are part of the game and the tendency is they are becoming bigger and bigger part... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, and remember that because I had thought it was a complete waste especially for a player picked first. Not sure who makes the call on where each player plays in the skills competition, but I was surprised to see he wasnt in the shootout. Knowing pav though, he would just backhand forehand miss the next three times anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
