Owen Nolan, the 1997 All Star Game

Well, with All Star Weekend upon us I thought I'd take a look back at one of the more amusing moments in All Star history. In 1997 Owen Nolan scored a hat trick in the game (however he lost out to Gretzky as MVP, how many people can say that..). His third goal became an instant classic as he pointed top shelf on Hasek before putting the puck there. I guess if you can back up that kind of thing then you're not being pompas. Mind you, this game was in San Jose and Nolan was a Shark at the time as well...

I wonder if that would count as a trick shot in tomorrow's competition?
