Rory Fitzpatrick v2.0

By Tangotiger, 02:01 PM

Last year, as a lark, the interneters voted a journeyman player onto the starting all-star team, until the NHL stripped away enough ballots so that he didn’t actually win.  This year, shockingly, the NHL made a proud announcement that they are showing the All-Star balloting results in real-time.  Well, here are the current results.  You will note Montreal Canadiens lead all six starting spots (3 forwards, 2 defensemen, 1 goalie).  Here’s an accompanying article.  The NHL’s faq says they will take away votes from any bots.

"Think of this place as something like a college classroom. We’re in charge, we pick the topics, we set the rules, and we try to foster as much intelligent discourse as possible. If this isn't your cup of tea, there are plenty of other sites out there for you to try—we're not going to be for everybody, and we're not going to try to appeal to the masses." —USSM
