I'm assuming he means Dany Heatley. I remember that all-star game.

probably because they were intimidated by RNH's man strength that he gained by going to the NHL directly.

Gotta agree, it's one thing when Crosby was out for weeks/months with a "neck" injury. But to pull the plug the night before the break... he should still make an appearance.

I imagine Iggy and Phaneuf were in young stars games (if there was such a thing in Iggy's day). Iggy turned out OK.

Didn't exist for Iggy.

Dion probably would have made the actual team but there was no all-star game that year due to the 2006 Olympics.

I'm pretty sure that if a player misses the ASG with an injury now they have to either miss the game before or after the break. It's the Red Wings rule.

Young Stars game. Started in 2002. Young Stars Game

Flames all time Young Stars game participants.

Robyn Regehr

Fun Fact: Bob Hartley coached the Young Stars game when he coached for Atlanta

I think you are all confusing the Young Stars game with the NHL All Rookie Team.

The all rookie team didn't actually play. It's an end of the year award.

I remember the uproar around here when Ladislav Smid was picked for the Young Stars game over a guy named Mark Giordano. Gio had more goals and points than Smid at that point. It was a stupid joke then and looks like an even bigger joke now.

Suck it Oilers.

Been a pretty special year so far for Johnny. Can't wait to see him out there with the leagues best (sorta).
