[Rielly Good]

I wish Rielly was an Allstar. Deserves it over Green.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Huge if true

100%

NHL is so lame with this stuff.

 

[Raging Bull]

Congrats to Matty. Hopefully he takes it off, rests up. Can we just send Komarov again?

 

[lovemyleafs]

I wish Rielly was an Allstar. Deserves it over Green.

Yup. Rielly over both Letang (even tho he's in a different division) and Green

 

[Raging Bull]

I wish Rielly was an Allstar. Deserves it over Green.

Andersen should be there over Price too. Too bad garbage teams have to send players too.

 

[Duke Silver]

I wish Rielly was an Allstar. Deserves it over Green.

But then who represents Detroit?

Does anybody really watch anyway? Not sure if I care if anyone gets snubbed from this event. We know who our allstars are.

 

[MJ65]

Hanifin? and not Rielly? - I know they both are in different divisions but there are others in that division that deserved to be there

Oh well I am not going to get in any debate here - there is no significance of these all star games what so ever, so I don't really care

Rielly would would rather have a ring then all star appearance, Komorav have appeared in all star but we all know how lousy we were

 

[Sergei Berezin]

Wow, Noah Hanifin is an all-star...

 

[Suntouchable13]

But then who represents Detroit?

Why does Det need a rep? If you're gonna have this event, invite all of the best players.

But then who represents Detroit?

Larkin can be the waterboy

 

[Liminality]

Wow, Noah Hanifin is an all-star...

Pretty sure there's still a requirement for each team to be represented. There's no way that Aho or Teravainen deserve it over the other forwards in their division, same goes for Ward or Darling in net. I guess they had to put in their dman who's doing the best this year.

42gp 7g 14a 21p -7

Kind of reminds me when Komarov was our representative when he didn't really have anyone else deserving of it.

That's how it works. Every team is represented.

 

[I Believe]

NHL reveals 2018 All-Star Game rosters; who missed out?

Looks like Rielly and Andersen are potential injury replacements.

Every team has to send a player, so the 3 "extra" Atlantic spots essentially went to Kucherov/Hedman/Vasilevskiy. They deserve them.

I know, I am just saying it's dumb.

Matthews named an Olympian!

*Fixed
Oh would could have been

 

[Halla]

Mike Green only has about 10 pts over his last 30 games....he is in over Rielly. thanks NHL!
no problem sending 4 lightning players to boost ticket sales though!

 

[Halla]

Price: 13-14-2, 2.89GAA/.911SV% (ALL-STAR)
Andersen: 22-12-2, 2.65GAA/.922SV% ( NOT AN ALL STAR)
Rask: 14-8-2, 2.23GAA/.920SV% (NOT AN ALL STAR)

this is why I dont watch the game anymore.

 

[ToneDog]

Get used to it. Many more All Star appearances in his future.

 

[Cleetus]

Mike Green only has about 10 pts over his last 30 games....he is in over Rielly. thanks NHL!

yes but every team has to send 1 player so Green it is, as awful as it is, remember when we had nobody Komo went lol

 

[ToneDog]

Price: 13-14-2, 2.89GAA/.911SV% (ALL-STAR)
Andersen: 22-12-2, 2.65GAA/.922SV% ( NOT AN ALL STAR)
Rask: 14-8-2, 2.23GAA/.920SV% (NOT AN ALL STAR)

I don't watch cause it is just a game of shinny.

 

[Dog]

All star game is a joke anyway. Rather have leaf players not going.

Matthews is tied for 17th. for PPG in the Eastern Conference.
