San Jose possibly getting 2019 All-Star game | CONFIRMED

[Kcoyote3]

To be fair, if every team sends a representative, I would have rather sent Thornton this year than Burns. Thornton has been as Thornton as ever.

Just let him drop the puck

That wouldn't be as fun

what the hell is up with laine's neckbeard? i just noticed it the other night

good lord that's awful

 

[JianYang]

Did they have Owen Nolan point to the spot to make it official?

 

[Afterburner]

But you have Santa Claus reincarnate. He can bring us anything.

Just look at that mug. He KNOWS when you've been bad or good. I wouldn't mess with him or that beard.

Nope definitely not.

Why not?

I didn't realize San Jose hosted one before. Congrats to them and Sharks fans nonetheless.

Good opportunity to have Train be the entertainment for the weekend

Long as it's not Smash Mouth.

Long as it's not Smash Mouth.

You take that back.
Smash Mouth's first two albums 'Fush Yu Mang' and 'Astro Lounge' were great reggae-rock albums that deserve listens. The first physical albums I ever owned, and they were by a local product too.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Good. Hope we get some Metallica.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

the SAP Center is a dump. Why would they want to have the all-star game there?

The SAP Center is a dump now? haha that's hilarious.

He'll be finishing his Career in Toronto with Marleau.

How so?

 

[Kcoyote3]

He'll be finishing his Career in Toronto with Marleau.

Right after that Carrick + 2nd trade to Tampa for Stamkos, and the offseason acquisition of Tavares for 6 mil/season because he wants to play with the legendary Matthews and win 7 cups with him.

 

[LeafsNation75]

I realize he doesn't play for the Sharks anymore but I wonder if somehow Patrick Marleau ends up in the game next year? Chances are it will be his last All Star Game and look how Brian Boyle represented the Devils this year in Tampa and the ovation he got. I realize he was a replacement for Taylor Hall, however the same logic applies to Marleau,

 

[MardyBum]

I'd imagine Winnipeg will get the ASG or draft soon after True North Square is complete. Didn't know Anaheim hasn't had either. That makes no sense.

 

[MardyBum]

Was the 97 ASG the Owen Nolan show? That game still sticks out for me, no idea why.

Yes that's when he scored his hat trick goal and calling his shot against Hasek.

 

[End on a Hinote]

I think Edmonton will get the ASG before Winnipeg does.
