Absolutely dreadful. All-star games are never great, but this might be the most unemotional, lazy, and pointless one yet.

What a joke...Columbus fans heckling Fleury...very classy. What's with the hate? Somehow they think we're their rival...I certainly dont see them that way. They need to focus on their own team...theyre not exactly the '86 Oilers.

I don't know who the hell is playing during this intermission, but doesn't that sound exactly like Divinyls - I Touch Myself?

No, I think it's worse. They even try to shoot "gently" as to, I dunno, not break a stick or hurt the goalie?

I second this.

Also, the CBL heckling of Fleury was dumb, but at least they have a perceived rival.

They even seem to be skating about a third of their normal speed. :lol:

So has Voracek surpassed Giroux as best player in the world?

This is awful. Why would any goalie actually want to participate in this nonsense?

One of the many issues with the all star game is with the "draft" I have no idea who is on what team. And why I should root for a particular team. When it was East vs West, at least I knew who was on the team and I could root for my favorite conference.

I wish it was 4 v 4 or 3 v 3 if they just want a goal fest and enjoy the stickhandling.

That's true. I would normally root for the east. Now, I have no idea who's playing where.

Turned the tv on when i got home. Unpacked some stuff and sat down...as you can imagine, that didn't take long. By the time I had sat down, I heard the goal horn no less than 5 times.

First time in many years I've watched an NHL all-star game, and I still feel soiled for not turning it off.

Time to end it.

This is the first year since I've been watching hockey that I didn't bother trying to watch, or record any part of the weekend. I really just didn't care, and it would appear from the comments that the players didn't, either.
