Some of the top players, and especially some of the vets would really rather have the time off I'd bet. I really do think of this as "Big Save Dave at the All-Star game" rather than has the Flames goaltending deserved to be on a pedestal".

I really hate the all star game so it doesn't really matter that much to me who goes, but the Flames are a team with a variety of options and the NHL needs the representation from every team and with the game being in San Jose look for the Sharks (and other California teams) to be heavily represented at all positions. Having a team that is half a Canadian team really isn't going to sell the game, even if they are the best players.
