What is this. The real Allstars as in the all star game would be a player from each team

Suzuki the All-Star

Isn't there 11 players per division?

Kuznetsov

Are you counting the last man in?

Yes

You’d be correct then

9 skaters and two goalies

The real allstar rosters were released yesterday. I'm assuming that the OP is trying to show what the actual best on best competition would look like, instead of the current "Attempt to keep every fan base engaged, no matter how bad their team is" method.

I understand both sides, but it's a little bit hilarious that 3 of the top 8 scorers in the NHL didn't get chosen (Kadri/Stammer/Rantanen), and that the 6th highest goal scorer (Terry) got left out (With Gibson, who, as a Ducks fan I love, but has lower numbers than both Quick and Markstrom).

That being said, I feel like there's not a ton of people who actually watch this anyway.

19 pts in 36 games...no room for Steven Stamkos

We have to have at least one guy from every team in

You are right, added player for each div.



That's the problem.

I understand that, because the NHL wants to make sure every fan base is engaged...Perhaps they should change the name to "The top player from every team" game though, because calling someone like Kempe, or Suzuki an allstar at this point is a biiiiiit of a stretch.

Toews snubbed

Nathan MacKinnon on Nazem Kadri not making the All-Star Game: "It's silly. I don't think every team should send a guy. ... It's an All-Star Game, not a Participation Game."

What?

Makar got in at least now Seth Jones needs to get in!

Just saw a funny quote from Nathan MacKinnon on Nazem Kadri not making the All-Star Game: "It's silly. I don't think every team should send a guy. ... It's an All-Star Game, not a Participation Game."
