ALL-STAR WEEKEND UPDATE:

[nshlallstarcommittee]

Hey Everyone,

As we head into the All-Star Weekend, there are some really important updates to share.


As was previously indicated, the NsHL All-Star game will feature the Western All-Stars (led by Mark, Anaheim) squaring off against the Eastern All-Stars (led by Jack, Philadelphia). This match-up seems appropriate given that each of these veteran managers have been through it all, and have multiple Stanley Cups to their name. To top it off, they are once again competing managing their team to compete for the President's Trophy in Season 21.

Some new information to share is that the AsHL All-Star game will feature the Western All-Stars (led by Jade, Seattle) squaring off against the Eastern All-Stars (led by Eddie, Buffalo). As with our main game, this AsHL match-up features two experienced and proven managers. The interesting honor that these managers enjoy is that they were given free reign to design their own All-Star roster from the ground up without any consultation from the All-Star Committee. Stay tuned as the roster are released tomorrow afternoon! (Saturday)

The Results for Round 2 of All-Star voting have been tabulated and the results are in.......


The results of Round 2 All-Star voting are set to be released here shortly after 12 noon!

Thanks again to everyone one that voted. The results were very interesting, and I think the outcome is appropriate.

Interesting that some GMs send all of their votes for a single player, and others send in votes for those GMs that neglected to send in their own votes - both interesting strategies and the Committee salutes you all!

Stay posted later today for the results of the Young All-Stars game and for the list of prospects that will be participating in tomorrow's Prospects Skills Competition.

Cheers!
