Jussi Jokinen for 2011 NHL All-Star Game

There may or may not have been talk of an alleged fan campaign to use our write-in votes and get the Juice to the ASG this year. Again, ALLEGED.

Well if you want to stay up to date with this "campaign" join this supposed facebook group. They may be posting links, updates and "oh so sexy" content all summer long and up through the ASG voting. You know, if we were going to do something special during ASG voting. ;)

Frankly...

I’d be surprised if he’s not on the ballot after a 30-goal year.

Advance apologies if the contents of this sports-based post offended you. I'm just aiming to educate the masses. My law professor says they're asses.

Refresh my memory, how early/late into the current season do the ballots go out? Asked another way, how much emphasis is placed on current season versus the year before? If 2009-10 plays into the weighting, he certainly ought to be in consideration as a top choice to represent the Canes.

I think the voting starts in late December. And I think that the previous season has some significant weight on the decision making process.

Along those lines, if anyone also posts at the Hurricanes message boards and wants to spread the word about the possible campaign and very real FB group, please feel free to do so!
