A movement started by a hockey fan on Something Awful is now getting coverage nationwide: the NHL now chooses its All-Star teams starting lineups entirely by fan vote, so he started a movement to send Rory Fitzpatrick (an unheralded bench-warmer) to the prestigious game. Whether it’s a salute to the NHL everyman, an affection for the underdog, or a vote of no confidence in the voting methodology… well, it’s pretty cool to watch. Right now Fitzpatrick is fifth in voting among Western Conference defensemen.
