Really? I bet it’s Reinhart for them. For us it’s a lot less clear, good arguments for different players by various posters.

Embarrassed is probably the wrong choice of words. I agree that Coleman is the most deserving. However, the entire league knows he's a 35 point per season 3rd liner, tough look when that's your all-star.

He's the only one putting the work in.

If all these guys are so much more talented than Coleman how come they're not playing him off the ice?

After the all star break it always seems like some of the players flip their previous play whether for better or worse. Send Hubes and maybe he'll remember how to play again after.

I think the players care.

Especially if say Coleman is picked. Not sure he had that in his career bucket list.

Good poll choices, as these are the four best Flames players this season. Today, for the All Star Game, I'd probably rank them:

1. Coleman
2. Weegar
3. Kadri
4. Markstrom

Coleman is our leading scorer, and has been an absolute beast this season. He's probably been our most important/impactful player overall.

Since it's in Toronto, I think that makes it more likely to be Kadri.

I'm guessing a player like Coleman would care if he got named

Should be Coleman, but will be Kadri. It's in Toronto, he's more known league-wide. We'll have to vote Coleman in.

It's kinda depressing how we don't really have an allstar. Good players like. Coleman and weager. But they're not allstars

Actually no one deserves it on merit, but 4 guys are arguably as deserving as each other.

I disagree...I think you could argue Weegar deserves it on merit.

His 8 goals rank 7th among d-men, his 22 points are tied for 23rd among d-men...and that's with little PP time compared to the other top point getters in the top 25.

Also a key part of the PP and playing against top competition.

I think you could easily argue he's one of the top 12-14 d-men available to play in the All-Star game.

Lol no one on our PP can use that as a stepping stone to All star status. If anything it helps the argument the other way.
