In post-game comments many of the players said it was almost as much fun to watch the game from the ice as it was for the fans in the arena or at home.
“It was good, tough and fun,” Faulk said. “I think there were a decent amount of chances for each team. It was just fun to watch and see some of the plays that were made that aren’t necessarily made in regular-season games.”
Of course, as is the case with any NHL All Star game, the play wasn’t as tightly-played or as quick-paced as a regular season overtime game, but that’s understandable.
