Fans will still have the ability to vote for a single player in every division for the All-Star game. And a plea for New York Islanders third string goalie Jean-Francois Berube has begun.
I get it. The poor guy can’t buy a start right now. He’s been a healthy scratch for the last two years. He got a look last year, but that required Jaroslav Halak to go down with a season-ending injury.
Assuming that doesn’t happen again, Berube is looking at a full season as a practice squad keeper. Not exactly the career he thought he’d have.
