I still think it's BS that Tim Thomas was not on the ballot, and I only hope that he is given a spot on the team, he does derserve it. Looking at his stats, he deserves to be selected.

[detroitfan]

Chris Osgood vshould of been on the ballet too with a record of 18-2-1 at this point of the season. But three Wings on the starting lineup can't complain

I do agree that he should had of been a ballot. You look at the people who are on the ballot and you just wonder. Jason Blake was even on the list. I feel that kovalev should had of been a ballot as well. He got alot of write-ins though.

I dont think Osgood would have made the starting lineup anyways but i dod agree that he should of been on the ballot. A player in Detrioit that shouldnt had of been on there was Hasek.



I hope that Kovalev joins Markov at the All-star game for the Habs.

Luongo has declined to play due to the impending birth of his child.

[Habsfan84]

I'm surprised by Luongo pulling out.

Anyways its nice to see Legace get a spot. Nabokov deserves it and Osgood sort of does.

They are sporting a pretty good tea this year but i think my east team will win.

I'm very disapointed with the reserves who made it. I feel that Montreal's Kovalev should have of been playing in here. I think Tim thomas deserved a spot at goalie.

[Boonader93]

I Think Alex Ovechkin Should Start More Then Any One Else In The NHL!!!
