Has anyone heard anything about this? Is there even going to be one, given the Olympics and all? Phoenix was granted the game in 2004 and I went on their website and it says it's supposed to be next weekend, the actual game on Sunday night. I hardly doubt that, seen as the Oilers are in Phoenix playing them at 8:00 ET. Anyone hear anything I haven't?

No All-Star game this year. Dallas has it next year.

Personally, I think the All Star game has become a joke. I would much rather see the NHL go the futbol route in non-Olympic years and see three three day breaks in the year and have International friendlies. I'm sure it would create much more interest then the All Star game.

Ok thanks Blade.

I enjoy the All-star events, it's just a nice way for players to show their individual talents. It usually provides comic relief from the stresses of the league for the players, and I like the Youngstars game, that would have been sweet this year. I think they should do like the NBA (I think...?) and have a game with the Rookies vs. the Sophomores.
