An excerpt from the NHL.com article by Mike Morreale
It’s seems rather appropriate that a leading 6 players from the Montreal Canadiens were named to the XM/NHL All-Star Fan Balloting presented by 2K Sports Tuesday.
After all, Montreal will host the 2009 NHL All-Star weekend in January as part of its year-long Centennial celebration. The 57th NHL All-Star Game will be played at the Bell Centre on Jan. 25.
The 6 Canadiens — goaltender Carey Price, defensemen Andrei Markov and Mike Komisarek and forwards Saku Koivu, Alex Kovalev and Alex Tanguay — equal the number from the defending Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings.
