The New Jersey Devils and the NHL announced that Nico Hischier will not be going to the All-Star Game in St. Louis. Instead, Washington Capitals forward T.J. Oshie won the “Last Man In” vote for the Metropolitan Division. It is disappointing because Hischier is having an outstanding season and deserves to be there, but it just wasn’t meant to be. All he did to respond is show the world exactly why he deserves to go right in front of the player who beat him out.
Hischier’s two goals led New Jersey to a 5-1 victory over the Capitals on Saturday night.
