The arena is fucking empty! How am I selling this sport to my 9-year-old? He likes things that are hip and cool, and popular.

He's done it before, with no notable success. He's got the height, he's got the long stick, he's got the muscle, but he always finishes last in these contests. He just doesn't have the same technique as the truly elite do.

Buttman tries so hard to make NHL so relevant in today's sports world but all he does is FAIL. How he's still the commish is a mystery to me.

I did not watch a minute of this or any "highlights", but is it safe to assume that
a) women were competing against the men and the announcers were falling all over themselves to tell us they were actually competing? (I lol at this after there was a big to-do about the women having to use a mens basketball in a college game last week and "it wasn't fair!!")
b) The LGBQT+@batmansymbol community was acknowledged and celebrated a dozen times and the league was called shameful for not having an LGBTQetc. player from someplace competing and winning an event
c)Everyone sucked Connor McDavid's cock about whatever event he competed in and probably complained vociferously if he didn't win it
d) Bettman was on and he was gay. Nobody from the Network thought to count it as their LGBTQ et al moment.

This is perfect...the NHL can't sell out the ASG weekend
Same people who continue to support an alleged NHL team.that cannot sellout a college rink in AZ.
Fuck off

They keep pushing women in these events but if these women are good enough to participate in the NHL allstar competition why aren't they playing in the NHL?
It's like in Moneyball when Billy Beane asks "if he's a good hitter, why doesn't he hit good?"
Answer. They're not good enough. Plain and simple!
