Oct. 13, 1947, was the inaugural NHL All-Star game. For those first twenty-one years, the Stanley Cup champs would duke it out with a team of All-Stars from the rest of the league. After that the game became geographical, pitting the best of the Eastern Conference against the best of the Western. And now it's an elimination tournament between the four divisions. The only thing that has remained consistent since day one is the skill involved. These players are good at what they do. But in a league full of pros, the cream will rise to the top and other players who are still amazing just may not cut it. Imagine being part of the early '90s Pittsburgh Penguins trying to compete with Mario Lemieux and Jaromir Jagr. Or being on any team with Wayne Gretzky or Gordie Howe in their prime. Even the best player would pale in comparison and miss their shot at the All-Star game.
Chalk it up to a surplus of amazing talent, but not every great player gets to be ranked as an All-Star. It's time to test your knowledge of All-Stars past to see if you can guess who's been to the Big Game and who never quite made the grade.
