from James Duthie of TSN,
It’s time for a hockey version of the NBA Slam-Dunk Contest.
I want the most ridiculous “How’d he do that!?!” dekes, the sickest spineramas, the lacrosse-like over the shoulder flips.
I want celebrity judges with placards (Hey, I know a guy who could get Hilary Duff). I want screaming fans holding up “10” signs. I want more YouTube hits than D*** in a Box.
“Well, it’s something that was brought up in our meetings,” says NHL VP Colin Campbell. “We know we have to do something to spice up the all-star weekend to make it more exciting for the fans. So it’s worth considering.”
