Half-Assed GDT: All-Star weekend 24th - 26th January 2020 @ St. Louis

I usually don't watch the All Star Game. But this year i did because it's was in St. Louis I thought the Blues did great job hosting and it was one of the better ASG I've seen. Laila's introduction was absolutely awesome. Her enthusiasm is contagious.

She was legitimately good at it too.

And yeah it’s admirable how much she loves the Blues. That’s why sports can go a long way. You never know the impact that athletes can have on people - they can inspire them to keep fighting. It really is bigger than just a game.

Which is why the death of a guy like Kobe today is so tragic. An entire generation looked up to him.

Laila can be the voice of the Blues and it would be awesome.

My condolences to #24.

Spoiler alert - he didn't. It was "movie magic".

Ahh I see. Al can still rip a pretty hard slap shot though.

Weird to say, but I really enjoyed Kane during the weekend. Obviously there were a lot of other cool moments like Perron scoring, Oshie, Laila, Tkachuk's Cards/Molina jersey, but Kane having fun and being a good sport with the fans reminded me of the all-star games that I enjoyed as a kid.

Anybody else wait in line at the Fan Fair to kiss the Stanley Cup? My wife and I waited over four hours but it was totally worth it.

I'm incredibly disappointed that NBC didn't broadcast the National Anthem for the All Star game (they did show it during the skills competition). Once again, I regret watching an NHL game via a legal method instead of pirating a Canadian stream that knows how to broadcast hockey. Unreal.
