"DA CAPTAIN" LIDSTROM AT NHL ALL STAR

"The Red Wings’ captain will play the role of general manager that day, when he and Carolina’s Eric Staal take turns in a fantasy draft selecting from a pool of NHL All-Stars. When the teams are complete, they will skate under the names Team Lidstrom and Team Staal in the first NHL All-Star that will have the teams decided by the players. Lidstrom and Staal were selected to be the two captains in the first All-Star game with the new format by the players who will participate that weekend."
Congratulations to Nicklas Lidstrom #5 on being named captain at the 2011 NHL All Star game on Sunday, January 30th.
If it was up to me, it would be very simple -all the Detroit Red Wings players would be on the rosters - haa haa
