Below are the Eastern Conference All Star voting results as of 3:30 p.m. EST.
While the offensemen seem all but definite, with Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Alexei Kovalev topping the list, the battles for the starting defensemen and goaltender are much closer.
It appears Andre Markov has secured a starting role, but Sergei Gonchar and Mike Komisarek have been involved in a dual for weeks to determine Markov’s partner. Obviously, Gonchar will be unable to play if voted in, but he will be honored nonetheless.
In goal, Marc-Andre Fleury and Carey Price have been in a heated race that saw Fleury take the lead for quite some time before losing it earlier today. Throughout the day, Fleury and price have swapped positions, leading to a very interesting finish to the voting, which concludes tonight at 9.
Take a few minutes and cast your votes by clicking below. And remember, while you may not believe Gonchar and Fleury are All Star worthy, the question is: are Komisarek and Price? If you can answer “no,” do what you can to get your hometown players into the game!
