From the article: Niedermayer was voted on to the Western Conference team by fans but will miss the game due to a stress fracture in his right foot. The Ducks noted in a press release that the injury was discovered after a January 13 game against Colorado. He is not expected to miss any regular season games.

Brian, want to know the irony of it? He's not playing in the AS tilt in a few days and he just scored a goal tonight for Anaheim!

Bummer, I like Niedermayer's game......

EDIT: TWO goals!

Since he was voted in shouldn't the next top vote receiver for that position get the spot(RORY)?
