The population of Latvia is about 1,997,500, according to a recent report. It’s a pretty safe bet, seeing the final numbers, that a good number voted for countryman Zemgus Girgensons of the Buffalo Sabres to start in the 2015 NHL All-Star Game.
On Saturday, the NHL announced the first six All-Stars for the game in Columbus later this month. Joining Girgensons will be a slew of Chicago Blackhawks. In one net will be Corey Crawford (1,099,504 votes), while Duncan Keith (1,198,173) and Brent Seabrook (1,016,992) will be on defense. Meanwhile, Patrick Kane (1,232,201) and Jonathan Toews (1,217,210), along with the Buffalo Sabres forward, will be up front for one of the two teams.
Girgensons received a total of 1,574,896 votes. The total isn’t a surprise given the amount of voting in general that was done by fans.
