I thought I was watching Circus de Soleil on ice for a bit there

I still think out of all the sports, the NHL does have the best All-Star game. No one wants to go to the Pro Bowl, baseball’s “Win the World Series site” still really hasn’t improve their game (I want the best players out there, stop replacing them every inning), and basketball’s is more like an And1 league, with players trying to show off more than enjoying the game.

Here, in this game, players look like they’re having fun out on the ice and actually want to play. And also, I’m going to look forward to Malkin and Ovechkin on the same line. Only wish Crosby was playing to center those two guys

Is it Spring Training Yet?
