I can't believe players like Afinogenov, Drury and Blake have more votes than Kovy!!!

Well, this is the 3rd time I voted for Kovy, Koivu, Markov and Huet!

All star game is a disgrace to hockey, it doesn't show the real hockey we see all year long.

I would prefer Markov to rest, and hopefully every other habs to rest, except Huet for team representation.

Kovy is playing great and we need him in great shape for the second half.

So one habs will get my vote, Huet. And i wish for a major pull of voting for another defensemen so Markov

keep his shape, with the heavy calendar end of january, feb and march is going to get tough on our key players.

Just fired off another 50 votes for Kovy, Koivu, Markov, and Huet.

Keep the Kovy write-in votes going! Wouldn't that be something if he got in.

The way he is playing he will have a good chance to go.

You my friend are a champion.

This is why I despite fan voting. Markov is the only guy on the Habs who deserves any votes. I almost wish Rory would have been voted in last year, to show that the league needs to do away with fan voting. The All-Star game should display the league's best players, not just the most popular players. At least in the NHL the fans tend to do a decent job of getting deserving guys in the lineup, it's much worse in the NFL and MLB.

I don't think that numbers are the sole criterion to judge if a player deserves to play at the all star game. The point of the all star game, as far as I'm concerned, is to show flashy moves.

I want Kovalev in because he's the premier stickhandler in the league, not because he scored 14 goals in 33 games or has over 800 NHL points.

I voted for Datsuyk over Zetterberg because the former is more spectacular.

I want Ovechkin and Kovalchuk over Alfredsson or Heatley. Not because they have more goals or are better players, but because they're more flashy and have an entertaining attitude.

It's not about performance or value of the players, its about the show!

And really, I gotta wonder if Markov is the best defenseman in the Eastern Conference. Carbonneau's already been complaining that the all-star thing might have gotten to his head and for the previous couple of weeks he was not good at all.
