The all star game is a joke; it’s not even worth discussing or debating.

See: Blake Coleman on the Flames. Leads team in points is top 5 in +/-

At least they still have an ASG representative lmao

I donāt think any player wants to be in the all star gameš most probably want the break to relax and recover before the playoff push and grind.

I’m sure Noah Dobson is very happy he didn’t make the ASG. He can have himself a nice little vacation instead.

No one cares about the islanders also could be a reason

They shouldn’t call it Allstar Game but call it the NHL Selects. As they are selected in. Doesn’t always have to mean you’re an Allstar..

The All Star game is not a serious franchise.

Let the players vote on the all star game and the awards for that matter.

He’ll likely be on the year-end team, either first team or second team all-star. That’s the one that actually matters.

All star games used to be awesome and used to really mean something. It’s been a long time since.

I donāt think Iāve watch an all star game in at least 10 years and Iām only 27. Theyāre for kids, if the kids are happy who cares.

To be fair Barzal was leading the team in points when the ASG voting completed. The fans are too blame for Dobson not being there as well. Fans chose Reilly from the Leafs instead.

The all star game. Is just a event for sponsors lol

The Allstar game is about promoting the stars in the game, not rewarding the actual top players of the season.

That’s a travesty

ASG is such a bore! It’s to the point where the majority of players dont want to go. And the ones now going have been so many times there is very little efforts or they make it all about their friends and family and completely forget about the fans. Check how full the bench is with kids and moms. Like seriously 90% of fans dont want to see Ovi’s kid taking a breakaway instead of Ovi!? Great for the kid and Ovi but as a fan who fucken cares. The whole format needs revamping and every 4-5 or so years would be better!

Did your fanbase have a push to get him via the votes?

Boone Jenner needed a spot I guess

Unless Dobson has some bonus tied to an allstar appearance, I doubt he’s angry about it. The legitimacy of the NHL allstar game has long disappeared. If I’m Dobson, I’m heading to the Caribbean for a few days.

Itās not the all star game anymore. Itās the representation game for whoever wants to go.Ā
