2017 NHL All Star Game Rosters Announced

The rosters for the 2017 NHL All Star Game have been finalized and only one Flames player will be participating: Johnny Gaudreau. One could argue that Mikael Backlund got snubbed and deserves to be there more, but that’s a column for another day.....like tomorrow.

Here's the rest of your All Stars as selected by their respective captains:

Forty players were selected by the NHL, joining the four division captains elected by fans via the 2017 NHL All-Star Fan Vote: Carey Price of the Montreal Canadiens (Atlantic), P.K. Subban of the Nashville Predators (Central), Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins (Metropolitan) and Connor McDavid of the Edmonton Oilers (Pacific).

Below are the complete rosters for each division, comprised of six forwards, three defensemen and two goaltenders per team:
