Rating: 4 out of 5AHL All Star Event worth the trip!
by Moon1701 on 1/31/12Boardwalk Hall - Atlantic CityThis Event was my first involving minor league hockey and I was skeptical. However, the players were amazing in their skill and their patience for the Event. They all signed after the Skills Competition which was awesome for those folks who stayed around. Seeing all of the different jerseys was neat as well. I am definitely a fan now!
Having Bobbie Clarke and Bill Barber as honorary Captains was a nice touch. Having all of the mascots present made the Events! They were loads of fun and even skated between one of the periods. They were awesome! I even scored an autographed t-shirt from the Gryphon.
The Arena was ok. My only real complaint is the quality of the sound and the scoreboard were poor. Scoreboard was fuzzy and was not working during the announcements at the Skills and half the time for the Game during introductions. We could only understand half of what the announcements were.
All around a fun time.
