Good evening folks. I was out so unfortunately, I was not able to catch any of the All-Star Draft. How did Versus do covering it? How was the event as a whole?
It is nice to see that New York Rangers’ defenseman Marc Staal and Rangers’ goaltender Henrik Lundqvist will both be on Team Staal for the weekend. They obviously work well together as Staal is one of the league’s best shutdown defensemen and Lundqvist is easily one of the league’s top netminders.
On the other side, Rangers’ rookie Derek Stepan will be on Team Lidstrom during the skills competition.
It should be an interesting weekend for all those involved in the NHL and hopefully for the Rangers as one would hope that neither Staal, Lundqvist or Stepan gets injured during the festivities.
