too early to call?

Every year there are a few players that get out to a great start who do not get added to the All-Star roster vote.
Every year fans of said player spout from the rooftops what a massive tragedy and egregious oversight that is and that the people who come up with the lists are obviously monkeys with their heads up their asses who don't know hockey and it's Bettman's fault. I mean player "x" has been among the league leaders in points for almost two and a half hole months of his NHL career, and is an obvious All-Star.
Every year said player crashies back to reality after the nomination list comes out and is nowhere near the top even by the All-Star break.

Who will it be this year that envokes the ire of irate armchair hocky pundits?


Neal? (our early season Cy Young leader)
RNH?
Parenteau?
Cooke?
Benn?
O'Reilly?
Karlsson? (-6 already. Yes, Skinner is -5, which also sucks, but at least has a forward ... and is twice as good as E. Staal and his 4pt.s and -10 :L)

That said... and this is a plea straight to the Hockey Gods

PLEASE let Phil Kessel be a Captain this year. Please?

as DGB tweeted a weeks or so ago
"Can't wait until Phil Kessel is named captain for the all-star draft and just keeps going up to the podium and yelling "SCREW YOU ALL"."

Homer vote:
Milan Michalek - 6 goals already, kills penalties and has just been generally awesome this year.

I can see Neal not getting nominated, but getting fan-voted in because Pittsburgh sports fans are that dedicated/ridiculous. He most likely won't deserve it at the time.

Jason Spezza won't get a sniff either, even if he stays well above a point/game.
