Time to End the All-Star Game

[dappleganger]

John Scott now has as many All Star Game appearances as Sidney Crosby.

I only watched bits and pieces, but the 3-on-3 seems to improve the play quite a bit. I mean they went from looking like they were playing at 25% to maybe 50%.

Have to forgive a bit of a victory lap I suppose.

If we can harness all the self-congratulations going on on Twitter into energy we could power Canada for years.

Grumble grumble grumble.

Here's Damien Cox's tweet apologizing for publicly claiming that John Scott's presence at the All-Star Game would "humiliate the league" and "wreck the game":

He did basically give an eye-roll at that Marek tweet you posted:

The three people this seemed to upset the most were Cox, Cherry and Milbury. Think on that a second.

Supposedly Millbury was being a huge dick on the NBC feed.    Maybe someone wants to remind him that he climbed into the stands during his career and was one of the worst GMs in league history.

With the rest of the Sportsnet crew (Kypreos, MacLean, Healy) coming in after them.

I only caught gifs of this as it happened, best ASG moment since the Nolan points?

This should happen every shift at every All-Star game (assuming Seguin keeps the S-bombs to a minimum, he did apologize though!)

Hands down the best all star game ever. A lot of people in the media should be eating a lot of crow right now.

Even when the NHL loses, it wins. Really enjoyed the heck out of that.

Congrats to John Scott on being named 2016 All-Star MVP!

Nice display of goaltending acrobatics in the final. 

Looks like this 3-on-3 format is a keeper, as it should be for next year's version.  Enjoyed watching it.

Yes, yes, the new format also played a role.
