   A mid-season all-star game is not a possibility with current NCAA
   regulations.   NCAA players are only allowed to play on one team
   during the season.  Olympic-related teams are the only exception.

   Not too long ago, Hockey East tried to form an all-star team of
   sorts.  I forget whether it was to be an all-star vs all-star team or
   an all-star vs a traveling Russian team.  But two games were to be
   played;  one at BC and the other at Maine.  The NCAA shot it down.
 
Happy Holidays to all!
