Dropping the Gloves with HockeyBroad

It's on, again. DGS has dropped the gloves with another blogger, this time, it's HockeyBroad (she's not a puck bunny).

We've picked our all-star teams and the results are on, so...here's the rosters and mine come with why I picked them.

See, I didn't pick based on just hockey talent, I picked based on all around talent.

Alternate Captains: Dustin Byfuglien (Had to corner the market on forwards disguised as defenseman part 1), Sidney Crosby (I support multi-sport athletes, and as we know, Sidney's a soccer-like diver)

Duncan Keith (D) (Drafted for sake asking him what swallowing teeth is like)
Jonas Hiller (G) (He force choked me)
Cam Ward (G) (He's not from a team hate)

Rick Nash (RW) (Well, I have a ton of talented centers so I felt like he needs to know what that's like)
Evgeni Malkin (C) (Had to corner the market on ugly Russians)
