Trolling The NHL: Blog Style. Get Matt Cooke Into the All Star Game




 It's reasons like these that the blogger world is so awesome. My fellow blogger friend @Letangueray who runs High Heels and Hockey blog is teaming up with Hey Fans blog to occupy the All Star Game. The Pittsburgh Penguins are one of the best teams in the NHL and like the Montrael Canadian fans did 2 years ago, we're trying to flood the All Star game votes with Pens, more importantly Matt Cooke.  

I was asked to help this effort out and spread the word. Anything for Matt Cooke. 

This from Hey Fans: 

The NHL recently released the All Star Game ballot.  If you recall last year, Kris Letang was not on the ballot, but a grass roots effort by Pens fans resulted in him getting into the All Star Game.  This year, in an attempt to troll the NHL and pretty much every other fanbase (specifically the Boston Bruins), we want to see Matt Cooke written in to the All Star Game.

In all seriousness, Cooke is having a great season, with 5 goals and 4 assists in 16 games.  He's also a key piece to the top ranked PK unit in the league, and appears to have changed his game since the 17 game suspension last season.

We have joined forces with High Heals and Hockey for this challenge.  Hopefully with your help, we can get Cooke into the All Star Game.
 


 Lets go Pens!
