HANOVER, Germany- Defending Cup champion Copenhagen and current league leader Paris each had 5 players voted to the Season 15 All-Star Game in voting held by general managers.

Coaches for the game will be two of the best NHL play-by-play announcers of all time. They both recently retired. Doc Emrick will coach the Northern Conference and Rick Jeanneret will be behind the Southern Conference bench.

Captains will be Gabriel Landeskog of Belfast (North) and Ken Kuusk of Paris (South).

Frederik Andersen of Helsinki and Geneva’s Petr Mrazek earned the most goalie votes in their respective conferences and will be the starters.

The North’s defense corps includes 3 pairs of teammates, with Minsk stars Aaron Ekblad and Maxim Chudinov to lineup on the first shift with forwards Tomas Hertl of London and Copenhagen linemates Auston Matthews and Marko Dano.

The South’s defense corps features one player with one all-star game under his belt and six others who will be appearing in their first all-star game.

Miro Heiskanen of last-in-the-conference Prague will start alongside Kuusk on defense for the South, with Logan Couture (Paris) centering a forward line with wingers Vadim Shipachyov (Berlin) and Sebastian Aho (Bern).

Six teams did not have players voted onto the team and the commissioner selected one from each to round out the teams.

Some players are very used to the extra glare that comes with the game.
