Ram 240 Report post Posted January 24, 2015 Awesome. Thanks for posting. Even though no Wings, I love watching at least the skills comp. 1 Hockeytown0001 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted January 24, 2015 Same, though I thought the rules were that every team had to have at least one participant. Obviously, Detroit's was Howard, but with his injury, you'd think they'd promote someone up to the spot. Nyquist/Tatar/Datsyuk/Zetterberg would be the obvious choices.

nawein 324 Report post Posted January 24, 2015 Especially since there we so many injuries after we learned that Howard was out. Gaudreau and Forsberg get added to the real deal when their teams already had reps. Not that I'm complaining, just seems odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted January 24, 2015 I suspect Detroit was called, and Datsyuk/Zetterberg/Tatar/whoever probably turned them down, opting for their tropical vacation plans and relaxation instead. 1 T.Low reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WingsallTheway 383 Report post Posted January 24, 2015 I suspect Detroit was called, and Datsyuk/Zetterberg/Tatar/whoever probably turned them down, opting for their tropical vacation plans and relaxation instead. I feel like tatar would have went, but the others I agree. I think nyquist may have gotten a call over tatar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedWingsRox 614 Report post Posted January 25, 2015 On the one hand, it is embarassing that they have guys like 'Johnny Hockey' at the ASG and no Wings represented and we are sitting at #2 in the East ... but it's all good, rest is better than this waste of time.

jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted January 25, 2015 Shea weber hit 108.5mph. Not bad. Also. I ******* hate the way they switched the format up. They made it even more boring and dumb than ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted January 25, 2015 And seriously, stop with these horrible effin go pro cameras on the refs helmets. Half the time you can't even see the puck go in... Its not cool. Its annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted January 25, 2015 lol, after seeing Weber's slapshot reached 108.5mph, I wanted to tell my girlfriend and observe her wonder at how hard some people can shoot a puck. So I'm all "Hey girlfriend, guess how hard Weber shot the puck?" "ummmmmm 200 miles per hour?" "....." When I told her 108.5 she wasn't even remotely impressed lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
