The biggest all-star snub this season is clearly Frans Eller. The only reason he was not given a spot is because he's not on a big name team. He had better stats than most of the Eastern Conference goalies, and had them while being on a worse team. Of course he doesn't have as many wins or shutouts as the goalies on the top teams. It's impossible to compete as a goalie if you don't look past the wins, or GAA for that matter. Eller has been bombarded with shots since game 1, and has stolen several games for New England this season. Heck, in the end the main reason we even had a shot at the playoffs was because he stood on his head multiple times and allowed us to win games we statistically shouldn't have. While the all-star committee clearly tried to get some names in from weaker teams I still believe goalies aren't properly analyzed. Eller is easily one of the best in the league. But sadly will have to wait to get any recognition until the team around him grows up.
