Don't boo Alfredsson at the All Star game.

[rdowdall]

While I think that it is somewhat of an error that Kessel is not voted in as a starter for the NHL all star game, I thought that I would send out a message to ask that any Leaf fans attending the All Star game in Ottawa do not boo Alfredsson. 

The only reason that I have is that if the tables were turned and this was someone like Sundin starting in an all star game in Toronto, the fans of the Leafs would not like it if some other fans came in to the building and booed him. 

I do not like Alfredsson.  However, when you look at his career, and the fact that this is a pretty special moment for him and the fans in Ottawa, perhaps fans of the Leafs could curry favour with the hockey gods, or gain some positive karma by laying off in this particular instance.

ahhh boo him anyway

 

[Corn Flake]

Um, why would I be at an All Star game in the first place?

Fine, I would like to ask all corporate shills, children, parents of children that happen to be Leaf fans and also are attending the NHL all star game to not boo Alfredsson.

Ok.  Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine.

I'm going JUST to boo Ratfredsson.

 

[Strangelove]

Any word on whether they're going to reprise this rousing opening?

The Leaf fans who come to Ottawa to boo Alfie - you know, the 30K type who get out of Cobourg once a year, aren't going to be able to afford to go to this game...so problem solved. Hyuk hyuk.

 

[McPwnage]

No, all the Leafs are going to get booed, suck it up

 

[crazyperfectdevil]

i wouldn't imagine there'd be many leaf fans there ...i don't think they go to all of ottawa's games...just the ones vs. the leafs..

I haven't watched the all star game in probably 10 years or more so I could care less.

Exactly. Four Senators in the starting lineup? Why waste your time people.

No, all the Leafs are going to get booed, suck it up

Players get booed when they are drafted by the leafs, while Schenn's name was being called the scotia bank place crowd was chanting "leafs suck".

I think it's all in good fun.

You are an old soldier so I know you know - but I swear half these new wave booers don't even know what they are booing him about.

Can I boo Michalek instead?

When the all-star rosters are announced I will be sure to update everyone on who they can and cannot boo.

You should give each player a Boo Point Rating (BPR) so that if two are on the ice at once, we all know that the player with the higher BPR is the one actually being booed.

....Nice...Consider it done.  Should it be out of 10 or 100?

You can decide that, but if it's 1-10 then I think it should have two decimal points (for example "Steve Downie has a BPR of 7.26")

Nice one S.I.
I do not like Alfredsson either, however he deserves some credit and his career numbers say it all. All Stars Game is pretty much meaningless so I agree with you. Let him enjoy that game.
As soon as the Leafs come into Ottawa, let him feel some louds boos again.
