We can vote him in. I think he deserves it as well.

Flames don’t really deserve the extra spot though.

Oh vote for sure. Guess I just meant that non Flame fans aren’t likely to look our way. I’d vote Rasmus.

Pissy will get in either way, and really he deserves it anyways.

Really we need to prevent all of Pissy, RNH, and Hyman getting it, since that will be Oilers fans goals.

Although really having the Oilers guys get no break and have to go to all star weekend isn’t the worst thing either

Hasn't Seth Jones been terrible since joining the Hawks?

Kadri would have been a good pick last season...considering his calendar year I am glad he is there. Also, good representation of the Muslim community which is lacking in hockey.

Lets not take it too seriously either, stuff the ballot for Lindholm

Well, Patrick Kane for one.

It’s actually pretty hard to pick the Flames best player this season. Could have been a few guys. No one really stands out.

If Sutter weren't choking out his icetime, it would be Ruzicka pretty easily. He's even given us a competent fourth line when that seemed impossible.

Tage Thompson is the most exciting first timer there for me.

Interesting to see that Ovechkin leads all the picks in number of all-star appearances with eight, and Gaudreau is tied with Karlsson in second with seven.

Also kind of cool that the Tkachuk brothers will be there on the same team together.

Lindholm also continues flying under the radar as a quietly excellent and substantially underpaid performer.

I think you're right. It's the same reason I think Tarasenko made it over Kyrou.
