Nathan MacKinnon has been selected to represent the Colorado Avalanche in the 2017 NHL All-Star game.
What a joke.
The NHL All-Star game has undergone many changes over the years. It used to be North America vs. World, then they went back to East vs. West, then they went to a fantasy draft format and now it’s a three-on-three division tournament. These changes show that the league is willing to adapt and evolve, which they should be applauded for.
However, the rule of “each team must have an All-Star” is absurd and shows a league that is still struggling to hook fans.
