All-star game are you gonna watch it?

[XperHFB]

As I was a kid I used to watch it and find it quite intersting, but as I grew older i find it more and more boring. The guys dont even play their best hockey, theres no emotion.

The only good thing about the all-stars is the skills comp. IMO

what do you guys think?

not even the skills comp is interesting enough for me to watch.

why not? dont you wanna see players get 4/4 corner shots?
or who has the hardest shot ?
or whos the fastest?

Im interested in that.

the last 10 minutes of the game is usually decent if the score is close.

Unless I have something better to do, why not? There probably won't be anything better on anyway...

[Habs 4 Life]

Most probably just catch bits and pieces of the game

[GoodKiwi]

Nope, I don't watch figure skating competitions.

I might watch a bit... the gimmick of picking teams is kind of a neat idea. It'll be interesting to see what order players get drafted in.

[Spy]

Sure... Why not? Game is boring most of the time but you never know what the players are gonna try to pull off in these games.

If i miss it, i wont be mad.
but ill try to watch it with price at ASG
im curious about how NHL will manage the team captain 1selection

Definitely going to watch the skills competition, the game will most likely play in the background while I do something else.

Skills is where it's at, I remember watching Bourque hit 4/4 and Iafrate's record slap shots. Now THAT is fun to watch.

I think he mad because no defensemen takes part in the offensive aspect of the game. inside joke.

I'll watch the skills competition for sure, but the all-star game may be on in the background as I play peak-a-boo with my newborn son.

[KareyPrice]

yep as much as everyone hates it i think its kinda cool the stuff they pull off

[katatoniak]

ONly the sill competition

Basically just depends on when it is and what I'm doing. That I don't know when it is might be telling. But I can't remember "watching" an All-Star game since the Naslund-Lemieux show. I've seen others. Haven't "watched" them. It's like having a music video station on whilst doing something else. If I stumble across it and nothing else is available, it could be decent background noise.

Same. Depends on what else is going on. It is fun though to do a pool with friends; did that a few times years ago. Everybody puts in $20 or something and picks 5-10 guys, just have a few beers and points totals wins.
