frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted December 3, 2015 Wait. John Scott? WTF!? Where's McGrattan in all star voting?what's the problem it's a voting contest and if the game want Scott so be it. But he already declines by saying he thinks it's some kind of a joke and hopes it dies down If the NHL hasn't figured out that a voting contest isn't the way to go maybe think again and have the GMs,coaches voting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e_prime 1,936 Report post Posted December 3, 2015 No problem. I really don't care at all about who gets picked for the ASG. In fact, I'd prefer it if no Wings got picked. 1 jfranzen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted December 3, 2015 The only time the all star game was fun for me was when Fedorov was the fastest skater. That actually meant something as a Wings fan. Everything since has been boring. 1 PavelValerievichDatsyuk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,788 Report post Posted December 3, 2015 The ASG would be more fun if a team full of AHL enforcers laced up against the NHL All Stars and tried to beat the hell out of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PavelValerievichDatsyuk 1,935 Report post Posted December 3, 2015 The only time the all star game was fun for me was when Fedorov was the fastest skater. That actually meant something as a Wings fan. Everything since has been boring. Agreed. I actually never watched the all-star game, but I did watch the skills competition. Fastest skater, hardest shot, accuracy (4 corner shots) - that stuff is interesting. It gives the players bragging rights and they'd pushed to break records. There's been some good 'rivalries' between some players for certain skills. I tried to watch it a couple of years ago, but they turned the skills part into games from your family picnic with the team obstacle course and stuff like that. Maybe kids like that, though, so I shouldn't complain since the All-star game is aimed at kids I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) God I can't even imagine most of the 35+ year old plus players on that 3 on 3. NHL should have a lot of docs ready at the all-star game in case Jagr or any other oldie collapses. Edited December 4, 2015 by kickazz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
