ATLANTA (ap) - The Thrashers' leading scorer and second in the league in scoring, Simon Gagne was voted as one of the starters for the Eastern Conference. Gagne will join Eric Staal and Ilya Kovalchuk as the starting forwards.

Gagne: "Its a great honour to be an all-star but it is espicially overwelming to become a Starter. I look forward to playing with Eric and K-Chuk."

Atlanta has a couple of players who may make the team as well of Martin Havlat and Jaroslav Modry. We shall see.
