THE ROOKIES

Remember folks, we're doing this to benefit the Humane Society of Michigan and we hope to have a little fun with it. I'm personally pledging a dollar for every point we earn on top of any other pledges I end up making. Here are how points are earned:

Goal in All-Star Game :: 2 points
Assist in All-Star Game :: 1 point
Penalty in All-Star Game :: 2 points
Save in All-Star Game :: 0.1 points
+/- in All-Star Game :: + or - 0.5 points
First Star in All-Star Game :: 3 points

Skills Competition Event Win :: 3 points

For the Team Relay Challenge, the side which has drafted the most players from the winning relay team will be awarded 3 points.

Last year, we earned 57.3 points.

Tweet your pledges to us at @WingingitMotown, put them in the comments here, or email them to us at WingingitMotown@Gmail.com

Most of all, before we commence the fun this weekend, I want to thank our brethren over at TPL for their help in making this a fun event. Somebody (us) will win and somebody else (them) will lose, but no matter what, the Humane Society comes out ahead, and that's what's important.

Thank you all!

Oh baby

I want to just stare at this roster lovingly and stroke it’s hand.

My only complaint...

is not seeing Jimmy in net or Lids on the blue line. But, neither of those was really possible at the time. Hope Lidstrom gets some good rest this break.

TPL had the first pick in the goalie round and wisely selected Jimmy. There was absolutely nothing we could do about that.

Booo!

Ah well, we got Dats.

You could always use violence

When you say goalie round

Do you mean that you guys did a different draft strategy than the actual all-star draft? I’ve been busy enough the last few days that I most likely missed the post if that’s the case.

by Kjell on Jan 27, 2012 9:16 PM CST up reply actions  

Yes

We picked all the goalies in round 4. TPL went first, and we alternated through the rest of the round. We did the same thing last year.

Without the cap, Detroit could have this roster.

Pierre McGuire is a blithering dimwit.

I like it :)

Tho…. I think I may be leaning towards team TPL….hmm

You should add points for All-Star-Game MVP? (i thought you had that last year at least)

We are interested in winning.

And those assholes drafted Patrick Kane. Don’t forget that they drafted Patrick Kane.

My only regrets are that you can’t trade Perry for Malkin, Hartnell for Gaborik or Kane, and Price for Jimmah (tough choice between Quick & Lundqvist….Henrik is better but I have a soft spot for Quick). But any way you look at it as the options fell…excellent choices, gentlemen. Go Team WIIM! Dats, Jimmy, Malkin, Iginla and Letang on Team Chara is going to be filthy.

And Tim Thomas’ mustache freaks me right the hell out.

Does Alfredsson look like a boozer drunk right out of some Irish pub?, or is it just a horrible pic

by Kendal on Jan 27, 2012 5:02 PM CST reply actions  

I think it's an especially bad one...like many team pictures, yikes

But I still can’t get past the fact that Stamkos looks like Sean Penn as Jeff Spicoli from Fast Times at Ridgemont High (not that he’s old enough to remember).

wow

you’re so right…Eric Karlson looks like his older brother. And both Tim Thomas and Alex Edler have 80’s style “porn-staches” – ewwww
