PunjabiCanucks Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 As much as it wouldn't happen, fans around the world and the population of the Tampa should not attend the all star game or make it the lowest sold / revenue for an all star game to show and make a statement to the NHL this will not work.

HI5 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Are they literally only doing this due to disruption of the season? Pretty lame. Probably going to try promote the World Cup more and compete with Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K PureCool Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 They can always cancel this and give Tampa the 2019 all star games. It's not like Tampa is celebrating anything anyways. Considering its centennial season for the NHL, surprise they didn't give it to Toronto or Montreal where the whole thing started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah Bettman oversees the league for his bosses of course he's going to promote hockey in a weak Florida market. NBC tells him when to jump and he asks when may I come down. Montreal, Toronto they're just cash cows for the league no need to boost hockey there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Shotgun Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 That's good keep the snoozefest as far away from Vancouver as possible. Actually does any real hockey fan get excited about that game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettman doesn't care about the sport, nor about the integrity of the league. He is a businessman, through and through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish⑦Canuck Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 The All Star game is perhaps the dullest affair in hockey. Works in baseball because there's at least something at stake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
