As part of NBCSN's comprehensive coverage of the upcoming 2015 NHL All-Star Weekend, NHL LIVE analysts Jeremy Roenick and Keith Jones conducted a mock All-Star fantasy draft in preparation for the 2015 NHL ALL-STAR FANTASY DRAFT Friday night at 7:30 p.m. ET.
Roenick was assigned to represent Team Foligno, which will be led by Columbus Blue Jackets All-Star Nick Foligno, alongside assistant captains Patrick Kane (CHI) and Drew Doughty (LAK). Jones represented Team Toews, led by Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews and assistant captains Ryan Getzlaf(ANA) and Rick Nash (NYR). Foligno and Toews will officially select their All-Star rosters on Friday, prior to Saturday's All-Star Skills Competition at 7 p.m. ET, and the NHL ALL-STAR GAME on Sunday at 5 p.m. ET on NBCSN.
With his first selection, Roenick selected Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin, followed by Jones' first-round selection of Philadelphia Flyers forward and NHL leading point-getter Jakub Voracek. Roenick chose Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price in Round Two, while Jones went with a hometown favorite, Columbus Blue Jackets net-minder Sergei Bobrovsky. The two alternated selections through the 18th and final round.
