NHL All-Star Game Day Open Thread

The NHL All-Star Game takes place today in Ottawa at 4pm EST. Team Chara will take on Team Alfredsson in a full game showcasing all of the offensive prowess and personality of the game's best (and healthiest).Last night's Skills Competition had some great moments, as Team Alfredsson took home the win. I feel a little ashamed to admit it, but the stuff from Corey Perry and Patrick Kane in the Breakaway Challenge actually made me dislike them a tiny bit less.
Obviously, I'm not going to tell you who to root for in today's game, but team Chara has both Red Wings representatives. You can root for Team Alfredsson if you want, but we're not friends today if you do.
In charity news, Team TPL leads the WIIM/TPL All-Star Challenge with 10.5 points to our 7.5 (The winning skills relay team had four representatives from each of our squads, so we split those three points). After jumping out to a commanding 9-0 lead in the Fastest Skater, Breakaway Challenge, and Accuracy Shooting competitions, team WIIM got back within striking distance thanks to a 108.8mph slapper from Zdeno Chara and some creative shootout scoring by our very own Steven "Spicoli" Stamkos.
It's anybody's game going into this afternoon. It's also not too late to get a pledge in to benefit the Humane Society of Michigan. Remember that the largest pledger for each site gets to pick among the six Red Wings bobbleheads this year (courtesy the generous and awesome @ayronatthewings) and every $5 you donate gets you an entry into a raffle drawing for one of the other four bobbles. Get a pledge in for the WIIM comeback and help a great cause.

What an original idea…….have someone put a Superman cape on you during your sport’s skills competition to grab headlines with a shootout move that’s seen every year during the shootout challenge.
Fan of the Detroit Tigers, Lions and Red Wings.
Nhl pr stunt...
there is no way that wasnt a pr decision thought up by the league and brought to the players. the announcers were talking about it before it happened. its all totally staged!
Ugh, ESPN has Gary Thorne calling bowling today
Is it really that hard for NBCSN to pluck him for hockey?
Fan of the Detroit Tigers, Lions and Red Wings.
Now I want Doc Emrick calling bowling.
And Pete Weber ROOOOOLLLLS the ball down the lane; it shreds into the 1-3 pocket… looks like the 10 is going to remain standing but NO, The two pin comes off the ropes and undercuts it like a midget butcher! It’s a STRIIIIIIKE!

It looked like Weber was going to have a turkey until the ball was waffleboarded to safety by pin seven.

I hate Excel
Been crunching some numbers re: the schedule for the Central teams post-All-Star Game.
Initial reaction: St Louis is going to be a major player down the stretch for the division.
Well that sucks

Did anyone see any official lines?
Watching the pregame, I think I saw on a whiteboard 10-13-81 (Gaborik-Datsyuk-Hossa)
Just bits and pieces
I also saw somewhere that it would be Seguin centering Lupul and Kessel

Official Chara line-up
Gaborik – Datsyuk – Hossa

Wait, is this game really on NBCS?

The AHL skills competition is on right now on FSD+ which is cool. But the croud sounds like they’re watching golf, polite clapping, very little cheering and not much noise at all. Clearly not like the NHL skills competition because there isn’t any booing to be heard.
I didn't see him
But I only caught a few minutes of it. I didn’t know it was going to be televised and it overlaps with the NHL all star game.

Wouldn't he have just skipped the AS game than?

I don't think they suspend people for skipping anymore
Especially after so many players (like Towes for example) choose not to attend with injuries
You sound like a manure salesman with a mouthful of samples.
As far as I know
The rule is still in place. The rule does state that if the player plays in their team’s game immediately preceding the ASG and then skips the ASG due to injury, they can be suspended.
Toews missed the Hawks’ last game. And this is all assuming the rule is still valid.
Would they give Ovie another suspension?
For saying his “hearts not into it”?

On the bright side we now have plenty of new material to make fun of Blues fans with
“Good job by your goalie costing his team the game”

sportsline's scoreboard is stuck on 12-8
it showed 11-9 for a minute, but then switched to 11-8 and 12-8, so I thought some intern had clicked the wrong button, but I guess 11-9 was actually the score for a bit.
Then again, as mentioned above, they’re using the east/west designations, so…
Eat 'em up, Tigers!
At least they have to code that months in advance
Don’t think it’d be too difficult for sportsline to update a scoreboard for one time use
