[Avery Rule]

Gonna be a good all star game for sure, can't get much better than Larkin and Scott

 

[Frk It]

Believe he was the only rookie selected.

Nope, John Gibson was also selected and is a rookie.

 

[chances14]

zetterberg is probably just relieved he didn't get selected

 

[TheRatPoisoner]

Headed to the all star game.


Works out pretty good the team -- vets and the goalies can get a rest now.

 

[Martinez]

Realistically I don't think any wings player deserves to go but Larkin has been our best player so I'm glad it's him. Plus our vets need the rest

 

[GoAwayDanCleary]

Well I'll be watching the ASG for once.

Gibson

Yeah, guys like Hoffman and Ryan might be more deserving -- they're having good years. Probably not having such good years though that it'd be considered like a major snub or anything like that.

But yeah, like ya said, since every teams gotta be represented, he's the right choice from the Wings.

 

[Martinez]

Hope he plays on karlsson's line

Maybe Mrazek or Marchenko as a wildcard. Think the league took the hint this year and didn't select people that would suddenly have an 'injury' right before the ASG. So no Dats or Z.

 

[14ari13]

Congratulations. He deserved it.

 

[deltawing]

Over the moon about this news! Couldn't be happier for him and his future with the Red Wings! I'll definitely be watching the All Star festivities this year because of him.

 

[Bench]

Plus our vets need the rest

Yeah, Zetterberg and Datsyuk never want to go to these things anyway. Remember when Lidstrom got suspended?

Awesome for Larkin. What a ride he's on this year. Didn't even know if he was going to stay on the roster and now he's headed to the all-star game. Exciting stuff. Hopefully he keeps building on that.

Exactly. Perfect compromise. It's exciting for Larkin, and the other guys get stay home and rest.

Two players were selected from Pittsburgh

I don't care about the all-star game but good for Larkin. Wonder what the odds would have been for that before the season started.

 

[FlashyG]

I'm happy Larkin is our representative but looking at the teams I doubt we'll get to see him beyond their first game.

I don't think it matters which division the Atlantic matches up against, on paper at least I feel like our division has the weakest team.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

One of many All Star games that Larkin will be heading to.
