Lame but selfishly would rather have the guys get some rest.
Gio not making it is incredibly dumb though.

WTF?

I know it's in San Jose and they have to pander to the home crowd, but that's ridiculous.

Giordano should have been named as well.

I thought Gio would have been a lock the way he was playing. I guess if it weren't in SJ he would be there.

Three sharks and 2 sharks defencemen is brutal.

Karlson should be no where near that team

How are Karlsson and Doughty there over Gio?

Doughty has been hot garbage this season and Karlsson's been good for what, 15 days?

Hard to argue with many of the picks if their plan is to load up the Pacific team with SJ stars for the host city...each other team only got 1 player as well. Too bad it timed this year as we could have had 2-3 guys otherwise.

It's in San Jose that's why.

This team gets no respect from the rest of the league.

Will Peters be the head coach, or does DeBoer get that automatically too?

Because every team needs a representative that's why. It's actually a good thing Gio and others aren't there, they get extra rest.

Karlson still shouldn’t be near that team. He’s having a bad year. I don’t think he’s even the sharks second best D

It gives the league a reason to still have the fan vote.
