The Atlantic Division

The Atlantic Division is captained by Auston Matthews, a great pick to captain the team who is now playing in his fourth all-star game. This team is filled with talent and has two teams, the Maple Leafs and Lightning with two players going to the game.

Boston Bruins

All-Star: Patrice Bergeron

Snub: Brad Marchand

Brad Marchand leads the Boston Bruins in points with 41 in 29 games this season. He has 19 goals and 22 assists and at the age of 33, he is playing some of the best hockey of his entire career. Even David Pastrnak who is one of the brightest stars in the entire league with 30 points in 34 games can’t find himself in the event.

The last man in vote could see Charlie McAvoy in the game, not a bad pick but Marchand and Pastrnak are the ones really having electric seasons this year.

Buffalo Sabres

All-Star: Rasmus Dahlin

Snub: Brad Marchand

Rasmus Dahlin is a good representative of the Buffalo Sabres, but with the season they are having and the state of the team do they really need to have anyone at the game?

Sorry Sabres fans but the All-Star game just having one player from every team to be fair doesn’t seem right if the all-star talent is getting snubbed from the event in order to have the same amount of guys per team.
