An Army of All-Stars

As of 10:30 AM ET today, the six players that will play in the 2012 All-Star Game in Ottawa, ON were announced, and it should come as no surprise that four of those spots were Ottawa Senators.  Now, who was the leading vote-getter in all categories?  Would you be surprised if I told you that the player you see in the picture above got the most votes?  No, that's not Daniel Alfredsson or Jason Spezza in the picture, but Erik Karlsson.  Karlsson, along with Alfredsson, Spezza, Milan Michalek, Dion Phaneuf, and Tim Thomas, will be in the All-Star Game.  The only question remains is who will be captaining the two teams.  Smart money says Alfredsson and Phaneuf will get the honors, since it would play up to the Battle of Ontario rivalry between the Senators and Maple Leafs.
