The four divisional rosters for the 2022 NHL All-Star Game will be revealed Thursday exclusively on ESPN’s SportsCenter program, the TV network tweeted today. The reveal program will be hosted by Steve Levy, along with analysts and former NHLers Chris Chelios and Mark Messier.
Each division’s roster features nine skaters and two goaltenders, and the tournament continues to be played in a 3-on-3 format. The coaches for the four divisions have already been named — Andrew Brunette (Atlantic), Rod Brind’Amour (Metropolitan), Jared Bednar (Central), and Peter DeBoer (Pacific).
All but one player from each division will be revealed during the roster announcement. Fans have the opportunity to vote for the last player on each squad, known as the Last Men In voting campaign. Details for that will also be revealed during the show.
The All-Star weekend takes place February 4 and February 5.
Hopefully every player drops out in protest to it
@bigdaddyt – Don’t be a tease! :)
SNOOZE FEST!
Load of bologna.
Cancel that nonsense & use the time for make up games.
WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS IT LITERALLY MAKES NO F*CKING SENSE.
You’re bringing players from every team (most of whom are struggling with COVID) to play a meaningless game and just superspread the virus. So incredibly dumb and tone deaf
I order my burger without superspread.
You sound exactly how I would expect a SF Giants would sound, when talking about viruses.
@forwhomartbelltolled Spoken like how a true uneducated Southern American speaks about viruses! Let’s be honest though, you don’t need to order a burger when you are already the one flipping them.
I hope it gets postponed like every Ottawa Senators game
man gang, when did the No Fun Patrol decide to show up?
Sure does seem like an odd thing to push forward with, when so many games have been postponed and exposure risks are virtually untraceable at this point.
I want the All Star Game cancelled in a normal year with no pandemic or games being cancelled that need to be made up.
It’s a useless waste of time. It’s the least entertaining hockey can be. It’s nothing but a way to squeeze sponsors.
Fans don’t have to support it.
They have to at least announce a team as many players have incentives in their contracts. They could always go ahead and cancel this exhibition game later.
