Great Moments in All-Star History: That Sappy Feature From the Game in 2000
January 24, 2009 1 Comment
ABC won an Emmy for this feature from the 2000 All-Star Game. Of course, this was before Mario would return, Lindros would concuss himself into a vegetable, Bure and Kariya wouldn’t stay superstars much longer. The only one who really survive as an amazing talent after this game was Jagr. Shame, because I’d love to see this done again with guys like Crosby, Ovechkin, Kane and Toews.
I still remember watching this All-Star Game, and all I can remember is the “Pond of Dreams”. It was so good, they actually re-ran it during one of the intermissions because it was that much of an instant hit. I get weepy every time I watch it.
