blueschica Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Props to John Scott, MVP of the NHL All Star game today ! Fans voted a regular guy player in, the NHL tried to keep him out and then relented, and, after scoring two goals today, fans then voted him as MVP when he was not even listed as one of the choices. You can't make this stuff up . . . . http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/pacific-division-wins-all-star-game-as-goalies-new-format-shine/ http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/14687259/nhl-john-scott-unlikely-story-all-star-game-had-fitting-end 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alphseeker Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 The best part was watching Jeremy Roenick eat crow and publicly apologize to John Scott. Priceless reply, " It’s not the first time you’ve been wrong" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyta Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 That was a great story and I hope that Scott gets a chance to come back to the NHL and not languish in the minors. It gave me goosebumps when the crowd was cheering MVP and then his team mates picked him up. Loved it!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhyta Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 One last note, John Scott wrote a great story about the lead up to the All Star Game and it is very good. He had a lot of critics saying he shouldn't play and he was a joke etc (cough cough Jeremy Roenick).

Thanks for posting it! Glad you enjoyed it, I didn't realize all the drama that lead up to Scott being in the All-Star Game. He is a smart guy and I hope he continues to do well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
