It's a terrible idea. Not to mention it should be all star team versus all star team. I care even less now than if they would've just kept the same format.
I was being sarcastic if you weren't aware of that.....this is an awful idea!!!! Truthfully I hope no chicago players make it and that none of them have to be a party to this circus.
Another money fueled idea thrown out by the AHL. And before anyone asks what I mean by that......It's simple the ahl got caught in a bad position by awarding the game to st.john's( This decision was made months ago I'm sure) and now looking at the cost of getting not 1 but 2 full teams to the island along with room and board, they decided to float this whole idea to teams in europe to see who would bite.
It probably went something like......"Hey how would you like to bring your team to canada and play a game against a team of ahl all stars? Well.... all it would cost is your airfare here and we'll take care of the rooms. It's a chance for you to match up against high caliber talent and see where you stand....really you'll do it....great we'll get it set up and announce it in a few weeks or so".(hangs up phone....."Whew that was a close one....can't believe we actually suckered them into bailing us out of this mess.....Now how do we sell this pile of crap to our fans?")
Thanks to whoever made this colossal bonehead call.
