I was hoping Dustin Byfuglien would be on Team Toews and play with Phil Kessel, making “the ice tilted” a literal phrase

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Kessel traded for Seguin, and at least half the guys on stage are hammered. You can't make this up.

 

[Raider Nation]

These models... my God.

How many of them are going home with 'a prize'? (prize=drunk 20 year old toothless millionaire)

Hey Chet:

#CBJ GM Jarmo Kekalainen has not given Nick Foligno draft advice, but ... "I'm sure he's going to take his teammate (Ryan Johansen) first."

7:20pm - 23 Jan 15

Thx. I ended up passing because they lowered everyone's odds after Crosby pulled out.

On the bubble: Jay Bouwmeester, Brent Burns, Kris Letang, Brent Seabrook

Such a sick group of talent down the middle that guys like Stamkos, Seguin, and Tavares have to be moved to the wing.

Impressive everywhere--but in net. I doubt Connor McDavid is truly a bubble player.

World Cup of hockey just announced, gonna be played in Sept 2016. Eight teams, USA, Canada, Finland, Russia, Czech, a Euro all star not from the countries mentioned and then an under 23 team from both Canada and the US. Not a big fan, hope this doesn't replace the Olympics.

Any word on Letang? Or are the Guins waiting for Rinaldo's punishment to be announced?

@strombone1:Guys don't tell anyone but I'm currently deflating a few pucks for the breakaway relay.... #NHLAllStarWeekend

I saw where he had skated the next day but was held out as precaution Wed night because in the past his concussion symptoms were sometimes delayed.

if you are 23 and under, you must play for young team. I like this, that should be a great team too. Remove McDavid, Ekblad and Mckinnon from main team. Johansen will make the cut by 1 month.

Yea. That too...

 

[Raider Nation]

This is unwatchable. Lemme know if TEAM FOLIGNO hangs on for the 24-23 victory.

 

[Capella]

This is really awful, especially the team names but I don't know how they could make it interesting.

 

[Raider Nation]

14-10 with 12:00 left. LOL. I hope the 3 people watching this are having fun.

 

[chet]

Remind me never to pay money to attend an all star game.

 

[belljr]

I can't believe I missed the skills competition. ..is this early for the all star game?

skills competition was yesterday, and you didnt miss anything. Only highlight was Weber's last shot.

Man I'm so ####ing tired of Team Toews winning all the time.

Happy to see JT score 4 but that was ridiculous.

postponement tomorrow I would imagine

National sports networks have pretty much killed whatever purpose there ever was for ASGs.

No way in hell anyone claims him IMO.

A fall of epic proportions.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

A fall of epic proportions.

well, they did win 2 Cups since trading for him. not sure it was an epic fail in that regard.

they probably should have used a compliance buyout on him last summer though.

crazy how far his game has fallen

 

[belljr]

So the Flyers will pick him up in typical fashion

 

[JaxBill]

He burned a couple bridges on the way out and Hexy has the keys to the car now.

 

[Parmcat]

Phaneuf out "week to week", and Okposo out 6-8 weeks.

Also Bobrovsky out 4-6 weeks.

Tough all star weekend

 

[Billy Bats]

Rinaldo got 8 games btw.

 

[chet]

Any Guins fans have info on Letang or Malkin?

 

[jamny]

They might get a total of 6" in NYC. HISTORICAL BLIZZARD

Maybe they will get more snow on Long Island.

Brooks: As of now, Rangers-Islanders on for tonight at Coliseum.

awesome...thx!

If they haven't cancelled by now, I don't think they will.

 

[JaxBill]

Thought that was fair.

Probably got 6 games for hit and history and 2 more for yapping about it afterwards.

 

[AcerFC]

This tweet was funny

@_nyrvana_

This blizzard is so underperforming that it will be offered 5.35 million for 7 years by the Toronto maple leafs
