Colorado Avalanche: Why All Star Appearances are Important

So far, the Colorado Avalanche have one player set to participate in the All Star Weekend. Nathan MacKinnon was voted the Central Division captain for the second year in a row. The nomination is his fourth ever in his career.

The All Star Weekend is just under a month away, and I have no reason to think MacKinnon won’t attend. What’s more, unless the mid-season slump takes fast hold of the Avs, I expect one more player at least to be nominated — I’m guessing rookie defenseman Cale Makar. I would highly expect him to take part in the festivities, too.
