The alumni game had more pace than this.

Eerie. I was just thinking the same exact thing. And those guys' average ages were twice this game's.

As with last night, my son is loving it. He's getting to know players he'd otherwise only get to know through hockey cards and NHL 12. It's good PR for the league to its youngest fans.

I wish I was once again young enough to not realize how annoying Doc Emrick and Pierre are.

That's pretty much its sole purpose. That and advertising $$$.

Ayup. Of course, now there are kids in two plus countries scared of Scott Hartnell.

Heh. Too late for me. My dad would rip Emrick back in his PRISM days for always saying, "That's met with resistance," or something like that on failed clears, etc.

Yeah...Emrick's insistance of finding clever ways to say simple things gets old fast, and his voice can get grating. Also, Pierre pretending to be buddy buddys with all the players gets real old fast. When the two are together, it's close to unbearable.

Speaking of Owen Nolan, when he called his shot might be one of my favorite All Star moments.....

A crap artist. I don't know when they dropped the silent C for the genre.

Thank God that's over. Now we can get back to discussing Bryz/Bob, Shelley, Briere, JVR, Carle, and the usual bad things the Flyers do game in and game out.
