Ovi not going to the All Star Game

It's incredibly stupid that you get suspended a game for skipping the all star game. One of the dumbest rules out there.

Kinda like getting suspended from school for skipping school. That one never made much sens. They don’t want to be there so you reward them for not being there.

You guys are spelling "money" wrong.. Ovi's taking money out of their pocket, so they obviously MUST PUNISH HIM!!! :uh-huh: :-\ Wish all 3 would flip em' the bird.. Haven't watched an all star game (completely) for 3-4 years anyway.. Popularity contest where your reward is you could get hurt. No thanks!

The only All Star game in the past 20years worth a damn was the John Scott game, which is why no one cares or wants play in it.
Hell Lidstrom and Pavel both “faked” injuries to keep from going once and got fined as well

All star game voting is nothing more than a popularity contest and a measure of a given teams fan base. Voting 20 times a day per computer is a damn joke. Every home these days has about 8 computers. I have; IPhone, IPod, IPad, PS3, 3 smart tv’s, laptop,. Houses with kids will have at least 5 more. Every one of those is capable of having its own IP address, and there are fans with no life that do vote the daily max on each of those computers. That’s just stupid, and a product of the butmann tenure.
