I hate all star games (except MLB) but this one was good. Probably the greatest NHL All Star game of all time. NBA should copy this.

The enforcer, voted into the NHL All-Star Game by fans, was selected MVP by fans via write-in votes after scoring twice for the Pacific Division during the team's first minigame in the 3-on-3 All-Star tournament.

Scott was not listed among the three MVP candidates for a Twitter vote late in the final game, But fans took it upon themselves to select him once again, casting their vote for the 6-foot-8 forward with five goals in 285 career NHL games.


Fans at Bridgestone Arena booed the options and yelled for Scott. Teammates lifted him on their shoulders while fans chanted "MVP!" and then Scott was announced as the MVP and presented with a Honda Pilot Touring SUV.

Good for him.

Good for him.

Winning that bonus money is probably a bigger deal for him since I've heard he's being sent back down to the minors. The story all week was that he had no business being in the All Star, then he wins MVP.

Love the NHL All-Star game.

NFL needs to scrap the game and go to player competition like they used to have in the events where QB's would compete against each otherby throwing at moving targets, distance, etc. , and other positions would compete in things like speed, courses, strenghth, basketball, and other things, and total their scores from each category.

I remember Reggie White dominating the lineman group...

Much more entertaining.

MLB & NBA?

No fixing either of those...
