GDT: All-star weekend

[Patrik26]

Best skills event night of any of the major sports All-Stars. Period.

Zero personality McDavid

 

[Ripshot 43]

The kid is 20 and speaks like a seasoned vet. I see no problem with giving the politician type response.

If I'm Crosby there i'd look right into his bald little head and say If they want the torch they have to take it from me.

The only problem is it is not good TV. But it's on TV.

Not singling out McDavid, Pierre is probably the biggest culprit, but the non stop lousy interviews forced me to change the channel.

There should be some current players there drinking beers and chirping at the shooters. That would be quality tv.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Pretty surprising there's only been 3 players ever to go 4/4 on the accuracy competition.

 

[Bleedred]

I'm thinking we should probably trade for Mike Smith.

I think he'd be a pretty good defenseman or forward here.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

No Hall in fastest skater

 

[EliasFTW]

Wtf the only reason i tuned in was to see Hall.

 

[Darkauron]

Why did they change the setup for this event? Isnt it going to be harder for the players to get to their top speeds?

 

[Bleedred]

Now I don't feel bad for stepping out of the room during the fastest skater competition. Would have liked to laugh at whoever was the most suspect pick for this that Hall could have been in over.

 

[Darkauron]

Wood could've beat him. :^)

 

[MadDevil]

Wood could've beat him. :^)

If he didn't wipe out going around a corner.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Wtf the only reason i tuned in was to see Hall.

Maybe he is nursing a minor injury?

 

[Bleedred]

Tuukka Rask seriously looks like a pee wee goalie after looking at Mike Smith.

I thought it was another kid (like the Kesler one just now) when I first saw him in there.

He's like an inch shorter than Mike Smith.

Martin Jones and Mike Smith are the same size, yet standing next to each other it's like looking at 2003 Brodeur and Giguere.

 

[RememberTheName]

This is SO BORING. I would rather watch an actual shootout than this garbage.

The NFL season is just ending. Tune back in next year

I hear ya though... it's all a joke really. As "cute" as it is, they literally have players kids taking turns whenever the player wants, so this is all a just for fun night.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Wait so not all players from each division are going to shoot? This is stupid.

 

[MadDevil]

Honestly, Hall looks like he doesn't even want to be there.

 

[Bleedred]

I don't understand what's going on here.

Yet they have a guy like Shea Weber and his one career shootout attempt take a shot.

Probably because Weber is the most overrated player in the NHL.

 

[MadDevil]

The JR and Pierre Show...a ******** and a guy whose head looks like a dick.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Honestly, Hall looks like he doesn't even want to be there.

I had the same impression.

 

[Patrik26]

You would think for the NHLs 100th anniversary they would have had the foresight to hold the All-Star game in an Original 6 city.

 

[JK3]

I have no idea why I watch this every year lol. Why do the same guys get to do multiple events, Hall shot two pucks from opposing blue line, pretty lame.
