Daniel Alfredsson had a goal and seven shots in the Ottawa Senators' 3-2 loss to the Phoenix Coyotes.
People complained about the inclusion of "Alf" on the All-Star team, yet he isn't that far off from the kind of production one would expect with 38 points in 46 contests. Maybe that's not good enough to be a true All-Star, but he's exceeded expectations from where he was drafted in most leagues.

Ottawa's Daniel Alfredsson and Boston's Zdeno Chara will serve as captains for the NHL All-Star game.
The Senators captain was viewed as a lock to lead one squad because the festivities are taking place in Ottawa and he was voted on by the fans to play as a starter. Former Ottawa defenseman and current Bruins captain Zdeno Chara will represent the reigning Stanley Cup champions on the other side. The pair will choose their teammates, playground-style, on January 26 in a fantasy draft-like format.

Daniel Alfredsson sniped the game-winning goal in overtime as the Ottawa Senators came back to defeat the New Jersey Devils on Monday 3-2.
Ottawa was down 2-0 entering the third period, but received a goal 1:21 in by Jason Spezza (his 14th), then a shorthanded tally by Erik Condra (his seventh) at 13:21. Alfredsson's goal was his 12th of the year and came with just a minute left in the extra frame. At 39, the veteran is certainly nearing the end of his career, but his 28 points show that as long as he's in there, he can still be very productive. The winger is three points shy of his career-worst campaign last season in which he played only 54 games. Erik Karlsson had two assists to give him a whopping 37 points on the year.
