"Center Eric Staal of the Carolina Hurricanes and defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom of the Detroit Red Wings were chosen as captains Tuesday for the 2011 NHL All-Star Game presented by Discover."

I'm kinda glad, more like really glad, Crosby isn't a captain or Ovechkin. And It seems right that Staal was chosen to be a captain since the game is in Raleigh.

Lidstrom is obviously an easy choice to make also.

yeah, but as i said, remember who was before him. one the greatest players to ever don a hockey jersey. and what a great heart he had. and im not a red wing fan.

regardless, not the point. i guess its just weird to me seeing lidstrom captain.
