Agree...but nobody outside of Chicago is probably aware of how well he started the season, so it's almost not worth it to write him in

Only 6 players will get picked by the fans...so yeah, he probably has no chance to be elected from the fan's vote. I think he'll get in regardless, though.

I agree...The Captain will hopefully see what Sharpie has done this year

Considering he has been a centerman nearly the entire year he would have no chance of being picked for the game. Outside chance he could be picked as a left wing though.

I voted for who deserves it.

Stamkos, Crosby, and Richards for the forwards.

Lidstrom and Jack Johnson (write-in) for defense.

Tim Thomas in net.

Considering there's only 2 centerman with more goals and only 4 centerman with more points as it stands now, it would be remiss to exclude him from the roster.

Over Datsyuk? I don't think so bud.

Okay if we are going to use stats rather than play on the ice I would dis-include Sharp all together because he is -11 for the season. I mean you cannot really argue that Sharp deserves to be in the game over one of the best two way players of this decade in Pavel Datsyuk based solely on stats, do you?

Sure, Dats will be there. Depending on how many other Hawks make it might be more relevant to the question.

You have to understand goals, assists, and points matter. Really, you have to. I know the league didn't have one last year, but can you remember what the all-star game is?

Top ten in points right now and he doesn't deserve it. Wow. :obama:

Yeah, put in Iginla over Sharp. Please do it NHL, please! Big names only!

That is not my argument, because Iginla has been cherry picking the red line the entire season and has not done anything, but guys with fewer points than Sharp have been better on the ice.

Hank Sedin, Pavel Datsyuk, Jonathan Toews, Brad Richards, Ryan Getzlaf, Joe Thornton, Anze Kopitar, and maybe Mikko Koivu all would deserve to represent the West at Center over Sharp.

Sharp is very overrated by most Chicago fans.

If you are arguing Sharp should represent the West at left wing than I have no argument and would agree.

He isn't overrated. The dude is very valuable to this team.

But, not All Star worthy via center.

Iago is right here IMO.....in terms of the All star game, Goals, Points, Assists are the most important. The game after all is all about goal scoring.

However, like someone else said, he isn't a big enough name to be named by fans.

I think he has a good shot of being picked by the Western conference captain

Most Chicago fans think Patrick Sharp is a top 30 player in the NHL because of the coverage he gets here. Sharpy is a very good versatile player but is not as good as most Chicago fans seem to think.

Then again most Chicago fans couldn't tell you who Tomas Plekanec or other underrated superstars are because most of our fan base are on the band wagon and have been following hockey for two years.

By the way you are basically agreeing with me.

I <3 Plekanec so much. He is my dream person I want the Hawks to trade for. i trade for him every year on NHL video games.
