After much speculation regarding John Scott's NHL All-Star status, it was announced Tuesday that the unlikely selection will captain the Pacific Division's team Jan. 31.
Scott was voted into the game thanks to an Internet campaign, but his spot was put in jeopardy after the Arizona Coyotes traded him to the Montreal Canadiens, and he was subsequently sent down to the AHL.
According to NHL.com, however, he will assume the position he was voted into despite the deal.
