why do they bother?

Who watches the NHL All-Star game? And why?

Currently it's 8 to 5 for the Western Conference (I miss the old names... I'm sure the Prince of Wales was very flattered that they named a conference after him) in the second period. Nobody's putting any effort in and the most physical moment of the night was when the woman (oh, hey, it's 8 to 6 now) who "sang" the Canadian national anthem fell as she was leaving the ice. Guess they don't walk around on ice all that much in Dallas.

I know the NHL bills it as a grand showcase for the best the league has to offer, but I'd rather watch Columbus versus Florida in February, when both will probably be eliminated from the playoffs.

Grouchy, today, I am.
