Only one member of the Chicago Blackhawks will represent the team at this year’s NHL All-Star Game, as forward Patrick Kane will make his eighth appearance in the annual game.
Kane, who is currently just outside the top 10 in the league in goals and is currently eighth in the league in points, will join the rest of the Central Division All-Stars at the game in San Jose later this month, the league announced on Wednesday evening.
Here is the full Central Division squad:
Forwards:
Patrick Kane – CHI
Nathan MacKinnon – COL
Ryan O’Reilly – STL
Local
Mikko Rantanen – COL
Mark Scheifele – WPG
Blake Wheeler – WPG
Defensemen:
Miro Heiskanen – DAL
Roman Josi – NSH
Goaltenders:
Devan Dubnyk – MIN
Pekka Rinne – NSH
Each of the four divisions will get one more All-Star by virtue of a “last man in” vote that will be conducted as part of the lead-up to the game. The game will be played on Jan. 26, and will be televised on NBC.
