Everything you need to know about the showcase of the AHL's best! Read more to find out the details! What Time?Skills Competition: 7:30 pm ET All Star Classic: 7:00 pm ET Where to watchCan't make it to Lehigh Valley? That's okay! The league has you covered! Who to watchAtlantic: Jordan Weal F (Lehigh Valley/ Philadelphia Flyers Affiliate)- Second in points with 29 assists and 15 goals. North: Jordan Subban D (Utica Comets/ Vancouver Canucks Affiliate)- Subban has name recognition but he was also called up the Canucks recently. He did not play with them but he is almost there. Central: Kenny Agostino D (Chicago Wolves/ St. Louis Blues Affiliate)- Points leader in the AHL with 40 assists and 17 goals (next closest in assists has 30!) Pacific: Daniel O'Regan F (San Jose Barracuda/ San Jose Sharks Affiliate)- Second in rookie points with 24 assists and 13 goals. O'Regan leads all rookies right now since the past leader is not in the AHL right now. What to watchMake sure to check out the Lehigh Valley Phantoms because they 3.68 goals per game, a league best. They also are the host team so they will get some good reception.
Look for veterans and see how they play vs. how the younger players handle themselves. I don't think fights are common in All Star games but the AHL is known for that so be aware. Leave a Reply. |
