First of all, congrats to Moose Juice for making the all-star game this year. He's amazing an amazing season, and an all-star bid for a player who was expected to be a backup in great. I'm surprised though that he was the lone Blue to make the game. I thought Petro or Backes would have a chance to be in the game as well. Still, it's good to see Elliot get recognized for his play this season.

Kirk is the biggest snub

Meh.

The ASG just keeps good players from having a decent midseason rest. I’m thrilled that all of the Blues’ skaters will have a chance to relax.

All-Star Games are the biggest waste of time ever conceived of.

I dont mind them

but would prefere a pre/post season one unless we have no players in it, then it can be in the middle of the season to add some extra work to the other guys.
