ALL ALL star Games are unwatchable garbage. And especially ones where it's a playground style pickem. Complaining about this is akin to screaming out YOU RUINED MY KICKBALL GAME!!!

There are no teams that are really circling the drain this year, not like the 76ers and Lakers in the NBA, and not like the Coyotes and Sabres last year. It's pariterrific.

Columbus isn't even a bad team. In these last few games, they've seemed to have really found their game. In their last two games they beat the top 2 teams (Dallas & Washington) with their back-up (McElhinney) and third-string (Forsberg).

Conversely, even though the entire hockey world is begging to give Jamie Benn the blowjob of his life, I don't think the Stars are close to unbeatable. One well-placed Minnesota Wild trap and they're out on their asses.

All star games lost their meaning about the early 90's, after that they just became worthless. If you want to let fans vote, that's fine, but you have to put limits on it. Two limits that easily could be applied are, let fans vote online once a week. Now it won't guarantee fools from creating fake accounts to vote multiple times, but the idea that you can vote 8 times a day is asinine. Or you could go back to the old method of handing out ballots at games, again, it's not going to prevent ballot stuffing, but it'll help. Though, I do think that the NFL's fans count for a portion, media for a portion, and players a portion is good. There also should be a rule that you have to play in 75% of the games prior to an all star game. And I don't have a problem with fans voting for a captain, but that captain doesn't have to play, he as in what John Scott really should do is just help pick the teams. This just makes me wonder if sports fans are becoming dumber and dumber by the minute and just do the latest what's "cool". The first time around, you kind of laugh, but the more this happens, the more you wonder about sports fans today.

Considering how absurd I feel the new ASG format is I don't have an issue making a mockery of it by voting guys like John Scott in. If I cared enough to vote, I'd vote only for goons and back-up goalies. It'd serve the NHL right.

If your gonna put some sort of guideline to the vote, then it should simply be that whoever you vote for has to be in the top-x in league scoring or top-x in sv%/wins for goalies.

Vote for Raffi Torres after he inevitably gets suspended for the entire season next year.

Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (CHL - 2018 Orr Cup Champions) Chicago Rivermen (UBA/WBL - 2014, 2015, 2017 Intercontinental Cup Champions)

King's Own Hexham FC (BIP - 2022 Saint's Cup Champions) Portland Explorers (EFL - Elite Bowl XIX Champions) Real San Diego (UPL) Red Bull Seattle (ULL - 2018, 2019, 2020 Gait Cup Champions) Vancouver Huskies (CL)

I don't think it's so much begging to give Benn a blowjob as it is the hockey world is pleasantly surprised to see someone other than the usual suspects atop the NHL West.

The Stars are a refreshing change of pace from the Chicago/LA/Anaheim hegemony of recent years.

I equate it to when Green Bay in the mid-90s got good fast and some fans had gotten tired of Dallas and San Francisco wanted new NFC blood.

Maybe the Stars can give us the NHL equivalent of when the Packers went into Candlestick and altered the NFC pecking order.

Why don't the other leagues have this problem, nobody is voting scrubs into the MLB and NBA all star games.

What distinguishes hockey fans from other sport fans ?

We actually like fun while also accepting the ASG as a complete waste of time.
