Unfortunately not.



Despite having four teams the NHL will only use two jerseys. Really lazy, would have been great to see at least separate eastern and western jerseys with home/away variants.

The real question is which jersey will he wear if he participates in the skills competition. Sandiz Ozolinsh didn't attend the last time something similar happened.

Skills comp they'll probably wear the team jersey. So Scott would be wearing MTL colors.

They already showcased off the All star game jerseys, which I quite like.

Spoiler!

This All-Star format was only decided upon in November.

Unlikely the league knew they would need 4 jerseys before that, and at that point it is too late to get two new designs into production and available for fans to purchase by the time the game is played.

Guess the non-trolls should have voted for OEL more then. I'm guessing you lead a campaign to vote him in?

I know i contributed a solid zero votes for this all-star game and therefor won't complain about the outcome.

So what skills competition do they put Scott in? Hardest (cheap)shot?

It's definitely up there. But my vote is for Jason Morgan being placed on waivers then claimed by Nashville back in 2003.

To be fair to Calgarypuck this is the most overblown issue in the NHL, not just here.

The next twist in this story will be when his wife goes into labour during the skills competition.

I can't believe the NHL is forcing doctors to induce her labour so early.

Plot twist or an elaborate plan dating back to April 2015 involving the Scott's conceiving twins, John being the best he can be, get voted into the ASG, and finally the twins get born during the breakaway competition and the newborns score the goal on a 3 on 1. Pacific Wins the event.

I'm convinced it was all planned.

Eventually a couple of expansion teams will be added which will nestle the Oilers into 16th.
