The 3 Stars acknowledgement comes under fire frequently as being a very biased presentation. This was one game where everyone in the arena knew without question who the #1 star was. Jordon's performance should have been recognized regardless of having to wait a couple of minutes more to get into the room.Big Slapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16865341731911491250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092520535436243757.post-58567380267082833012014-04-25T14:31:17.927-07:002014-04-25T14:31:17.927-07:00I think Andy and Todd made the picks and told me a...I think Andy and Todd made the picks and told me afterwards he was #1 on their broadcast (and mine by the way) but in the building they thought #3 was better to get him out there quickly to pick up his award and get it over with. I still think he would have received a great applause from your fan base if he had been #1. I don't question Todd and Andy's judgement though. They see the game awfully well.

I'm sure there were many of us that felt the same way you did Leah. While I understand the rationale behind the picks Tuesday night (and most nights I agree with it), Jordon Cooke's performance should have been acknowledged for the amazing show that it was.Big Slapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16865341731911491250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092520535436243757.post-44906198294548579612014-04-24T11:46:18.731-07:002014-04-24T11:46:18.731-07:00I was embarrassed as a Portland fan that Cooke was...I was embarrassed as a Portland fan that Cooke wasn't given the first star; he was so obviously the best player on the ice, despite the outcome for his team.Leah!https://www.blogger.com/profile/06885047573164230487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092520535436243757.post-54636231094889365492014-04-23T12:30:01.354-07:002014-04-23T12:30:01.354-07:00We've seen some amazing playoff performances b...We've seen some amazing playoff performances by visiting goalies over the years in Portland but none that outshine that of Jordon Cooke. I know it must be an empty feeling in light of the end result but hopefully Jordon (and all Kelowna fans) can eventually appreciate just how rare the night truly was.Big Slapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16865341731911491250noreply@blogger.com
