Yeah I wonder. You never know maybe the players have a sister or brother they give it to.

Sure, he would be the exception. But he did have to listen to a bunch of millionaires laugh about what how funny that car would look beside their Ferrari for an hour.

Not the point for me. They make more than enough to pay for their own rides.

+1 to the NHL getting players liquored up. I would of flipped the channel 10 minutes in otherwise. They entertained above and beyond what I had expected or saw in the past. Lots of funny quips at other players expense and a couple subtle dirty jokes.

On the back of Ovechkin's jersey tonight should have been the number .08.

I think they'd have to drop the 0.

I dunno, it looks like he short-circuits after making the glance.

Wait, so Team Foligno got the extra player for winning the puck toss (meaning they'd get the first and last pick), and RNH went to them, so, even though he 'won the fan vote', doesn't that technically make him the last pick? (just lookin' for as many ways to laugh at the Oilers as possible)

Stephen Whyno @SWhyno
Drew Doughty said there was just water in those cups. He's a Conn Smythe calibre liar.

Why do they even bother with fight straps on the all-star jerseys.

I wonder if Johnny's coach from the World Championships last year will lobby the league to let him play in the game? They have an open roster spot.

Drunk players > Sober players

NHL could have picked better hosts though. Should have chosen a comedian with hockey knowledge.

Is there anything we as fans can do to lobby for Gaudreau to be on the team? I wouldn't burst an artery over it but maybe we can start some kind of petition, as it doesn't seem too late to just include him on the team
