NHL All-Star Draft 2012: Team Chara Roster Will Get Booed All Weekend Long

They wear blue. They have Zdeno Chara, the ex-Senator but current member of the rival Boston Bruins. They have Joffrey Lupul, hated foe from the Toronto Maple Leafs. And if that wasn't enough to ensure that Team Chara would be the bad guys at the 2012 NHL All-Star Weekend in Ottawa, they added two more Leafs, Phil Kessel and Dion Phaneuf, to their ranks as well.

Team Chara will try to win the Skills Competition on Saturday evening and the All-Star Game on Sunday, but they certainly won’t have the Scotiabank Place crowd behind them as they make the attempt. Here’s a look at the full Team Chara roster:

TEAM CHARA

Forwards: Joffrey Lupul, Pavel Datsyuk, Evgeni Malkin, Marian Hossa, Corey Perry, Phil Kessel, Patrick Kane, Jarome Iginla, Marian Gaborik, Jordan Eberle, Tyler Seguin, Jamie Benn

Defensemen: Zdeno Chara, Kimmo Timonen, Ryan Suter, Dan Girardi, Dion Phaneuf, Dennis Wideman

Goalies: Tim Thomas, Carey Price, Jimmy Howard

Rookies: Gabriel Landeskog, Luke Adam, Colin Greening, Cody Hodgson, Ryan Johansen, Raphael Diaz
