As many diehard hockey traditionalists do go off on the n.h.l. And eventually that leads them to talk about the other what they see is the other really dumb thing about that years All-Star game fan voting has long been a part of the game as a kid there is nothing else better than grabbing a little punch card at a game and knocking out the little circles and trying to grab like 30 of them to make sure that you know Kirk Muller gets a spot in the All-Star game or whatever but over the years the n.h.l. Had started reducing the number of players they could get voted in one year they were even accused of of turning off the vote when they didn t like where it was headed and anyway this year the n.h.l. Had limited the vote so much the defense could only vote in for players a captain for each division the Pacific the central the Atlantic the Metropolitan But for players all you could vote in that just seems to run counter to what the All-Star Game history tradition should be to what we really
Fanconi fan voting has long been a part of the game as a kid there is nothing else better than grabbing a little punch card at a game and knocking out the little circles and trying to grab like 30 of them to make sure that you know Kirk Muller gets a spot the All-Star game or whatever but over the years the n.h.l. Had started reducing the number of players they could get voted in one year they were even accused of of turning off the vote when they didn t like where it was headed and anyway this year the n.h.l. Had limited devote so much that the fans could only vote for players a captain for each division the Pacific the central the Atlantic the Metropolitan But for players all you could vote in that just seems to run counter to what the All-Star Game history tradition should be to what we really want with this All-Star Game which is fan and gauging at the end I just hope that everyone that somehow a collective and maybe we can meet the churchyard and in that point they started thinki
Yeah so we are law of happy this story really begins on the podcast that I did with the gentleman by the name of Jeff Merican wrong and it s basically couple hockey writers just shooting the breeze on Hockey Well you know what it is you were in the hockey industry and as you know like hockey industries about making money making new fans turn into heads Ok so this is November 25th teen just a few months before the end he tells you no big mid season spectacle to. The All-Star Game. So. There is a sense that I have about this game that that s worrisome and so this year yet again the n.h.l. For the 100th time in the last 15 years was changing the format of the All-Star Game this year the 36 years it s really returning consisting of explosions from each division hockey s typically 5 on $53.00 on 3 however is supposed to be like you know way more action and a lot more scoring a lot more fun but for Greg and Jeff Eric right now who are you know these hockey purists they re like yet again the
Us. Is a nightmare to think this isn t going to bring about corruption. Kids getting paid cash. You re telling the. Student athletes that you can profit from the image going what do you think the kids are going to class. Is that. Keep me. Happy Halloween hides them behind one thing as they did against the Ducks on Sunday. 235. Consoles the 2nd half of the 1st conference for the $1435.00 that s going to make $36.00. Going tonight despite the giveaways really seemed to settle it. So that the 2nd. Stop put the play to get the. Players. Pushed back.

This is kind of the 1st real road trip but you know there have been a few road games.
