Since the rosters for the 2020 NHL All-Star Game in St. Louis were announced, there has been much debate about those left off, including Vegas Golden Knights forward Max Pacioretty.
Pacioretty was included on the “Last Men-In” ballot which allows fans to vote for one player from all four divisions, with the results of that ballot being announced today.
However, it was announced today that Pacioretty will be heading to St. Louis after replacing Anaheim Ducks forward Jakob Silfverberg on the Pacific Division roster, with Silfverberg excused from the event due to the imminent birth of his child.
