That PLD trade has actually turned into a total FLEECING by the Jets. PLD is now barely a 4th liner while Vilardi is absolutely unreal. And WIN got 2 more players and a 2nd rounder too!

I like every team getting an All Star rep. It adds a bit of investment for every viewer to an event that naturally lacks a genuine sense of competition and exposes fans of other teams to players they overlook. Adults upset that selection doesn’t mean more is ridiculous. Plenty of players who deserve to be there will miss out due to the fan vote, which utterly favours big markets.

He was mad that they didn't play him towards the end of the year to burn a year off his entry level contract, which effectively cost him millions of dollars by delaying a new contract. Also let's face it Torts is not the most fun coach to play for and in Anaheim he can be a main guy into their rebuild and get time on the PP without as much of an expectation that he sacrifices points and his body for defensive play and shot-blocking.

The All-Star representation (every team having a player) is just a natural extension of the 'mighty' parity that the NHL gets praised for. We can't have it both ways. If you prefer a decentralization of the talent in the league, then decentralization of talent is going to appear in other places, ie the All-Star game and the chosen representatives.
