NHL All-Star Balloting

Recommended Posts

Guest RyechnaiaSobaka

If you haven't voted yet for the NHL All-Star Game, the ballot is available here: http://fanballoting.nhl.com/

 

Personally, I'm disappointed with the selection of players available outside of the write-in lists, but whatever.

 

So, who'd you vote for?

 

I voted for:

 

Eastern Conference:

 

Forward #1: Vincent Lecavalier - TB

Forward #2: Ilya Kovalchuk - ATL

Forward #3: Daniel Alfredsson - OTT

Defense #1: Joseph Corvo - OTT *

Defense #2: Chris Phillips - OTT

Goaltender: Cristobal Huet - MTL

 

Western Conference:

 

Forward #1: Jarome Iginla - CGY

Forward #2: Henrik Zetterberg - DET

Forward #3: Paul Stastny - COL

Defense #1: Nicklas Lidstrom - DET

Defense #2: Doug Murray - SJ *

Goaltender: Pascal Leclaire - CBJ

 

* - Write-in.

 

I wanted to vote for Tim Thomas as the goalie for the East and Chris Osgood as the goalie for the West, but they were not available.

 

I think this balloting system sucks, not just because it's slow as balls because for whatever reason they can't just use a regular web form and everything has to be Flash with fades and whatever, but that has a lot to do with it. Fuck it.

Anyone wanna know who his favourite Simpsons character is? HOMER! I have underrated Markov and Huet, but come on, Koivu? Hadn't had a goal in 12 games until Saturday. I like Komisarek a lot, think he does a lot of the intangibles that don't make Sportscentre, but I don't see him as an all-star....this year.

 

Anyway,

 

East: Lecavalier, Kovalchuk, Crosby, Markov, Phillips, Huet

 

West: Iginla, Zetterberg, Kopitar, Lidstrom, Ohlund, Luongo.

 

I feel really badly about not putting Heatley on there. And to further the bitching about the voting system, why are Corey Perry and Christian Huselius write-ins?

Are we supposed to vote for Rory again.

 

Eh, whatever, I'm voting for him anyway. And a bunch of former Sabres.

Um, how about we start a push for obscure players who are not on the regular lists despite being freakin' awesome this year, such as Tim Thomas or Chris Osgood?

C'mon this thing is a farce anyways. It's not supposed to be taken seriously.

 

 

CG: Komi is awesome.

Let's start the Craig Anderson All Star push. He's Vokoun's backup in Florida.

Oh no, can't do that. We'll ruin the sanctity of the NHL All-Star game. Don't you know how much prestige there is it in right now!

I'm actually a big fan of his from his time with Rochester in recent years.

For your consideration, Patrick Sharp leads the league with seven short-handed goals. If the refs call penalties in the ASG, Sharpie's your guy!
