NICE!!!

Well deserved.

 

[Gabrielor]

So so so deserved. I actually voted as many times as I could.

Congratz Jeff, now resign!

 

[Mit Yarrum]

Congratz Jeff, now resign!

Hell no! He's got plenty of productive years ahead of him. No need to resign. He should re-sign with us though!

Just having fun with you

I'm actually really surprised he got in. Not that he doesn't deserve it, but going head to head with a leafs player who deserves it too I'm surprised he got enough votes.

Buffalo got Zemgus Girgensons in, so Jeff Skinner wasn't so unlikely.

Latvia got Zemgus in.

 

[1point21Gigawatts]

Latvia got Zemgus in.

Zemgus is everything to Latvia


Congrats, Skinman! Well deserved.

WooHoo! I wonder if they'll have Jeff on Eichel's wing, or move him around? It's not like they have set-in-stone lines, if I remember right.

 

[enthusiast]

shouts out to the people who outvoted leafs fans somehow

It's all 3-on-3, so there aren't really traditional lines.

There are only 2 D-men in the Atlantic and Central divisions, so one of the 3 lines will have 3 forwards.

Stamkos-Kucherov-Yandle
Tavaras-Matthews-Chabot
Eichel-Skinner-Pastrnak

I didn't even realize the whole thing was going to be 3-on-3.

That's going to be interesting. The usual 5-on-5 thing was really casual, and was more a have fun and a showcase for offensive skills session. I remember Danny Briere winning the MVP of the '07 ASG.

 

[Dahlin 2 Eichel]

Yes!!!! Thank you to everyone that voted!!

It's been like that for a couple years now. Last year was fun with Eichel/Matthews, as well as Kucherov/Eichel for that one goal.

Latvia got Zemgus in.

Yeah. This. That was all Latvia.

Best moment in an All Star game was John Scott.

What is it with Buffalo? Fitzpatrick, Scott and Zemgus.

 

[Buffaloed]

Yes!!!! Thank you to everyone that voted!!

At least we'll have scapegoats if we can't get him signed because he wants too much money.

 

[oldgoalie]

should have been nominated to start with.

 

[ZZamboni]

Yea!!

He taking part in the worst “sporting event” that collects “stars” from around it’s league to “play”.





But regardless ... um ... good for him.

 

[EichHart]

Awesome! Wonder what event he will do? Thinking faster skater and accuracy?

 

[old kummelweck]

I was good for around 60-70 votes. Very out of character for me to care enough to vote. It helped I already have an NHL.com account for streaming.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Of course skinner is an all star. He’s STRONG

(I just wanted to make sure you guys know this exists, major volume warning)

I used three different IP's from a VPN and made 3 emails, I voted 30 times a day.

He likely will pocket a decent amount of money for this. So there's that.

Someone should recruit you to get the next president elected.
