All-Star Weekend

The time has finally come for the All-Star Weekend festivities in Ottawa.  Voting in the first six players had a bit of an Ontario feel (more specifically, a hometown feel), and some selections raised some eyebrows.  Tonight, the fantasy draft begins, as captains Daniel Alfredsson and Zdeno Chara, with help from alternate captains Henrik Lundqvist and Joffrey Lupul, will pick their teams.  The rookies that are participating in the festivities will be divided into two teams of six, and one of the rookies will decide who goes where after round 15.  All goaltenders have to have been picked by round 10 (sorry folks, Carey Price is not going to be the last one picked, despite the fact that it would be well deserved), and defensemen by round 15.  So, who will be picked last?  I'm going on a limb and will say Dennis Wideman.
