I'm going to the Skills Contest and Young Stars game. Looking forward to it.
The All-Star Game itself is going to suck, like it has for the past 20 years, no doubt about that. No intensity, no hitting, no passion, not worth it. BORRRRINGGGGG

The 5-4 game that year in Boston was a seriously good game. The one where Ray Borque scored the winner on the backhand in the dying minutes if I remember correctly.
I'll be flippin back & forth between the skills comp & the Red Bull Crashed Ice thing on TSN tonight. So damn funny/crazy.

Last year's all-star weekend was s joke. I'm only excited for this year's cause I think they might do a better job.
Oh and the trick shot last year was ing ridiculous. Most of the guys didn't know what they were doing and looked like idiots. But since it was their first time, I'm assuuming they'll do a better job this year.

It makes sense that the trick shots will suck. The BEST players have had those types of hot dog attempts beat out of them over the years because they're generally low-percentage shots. If you want to see the sparkle, you gotta watch amateurs go at it.
Here's a vid of one of my cousin's shots, he plays in a euro league now, I think in Finland.
