Cam Atkinson is an All-Star.
Two weeks after after the original rosters were announced, Atkinson got a call Wednesday night from Blue Jackets GM Jarmo Kekalainen, letting him know he would be joining the Metropolitan Division team.
"It's obviously very special and very humbling," Atkinson told BlueJackets.com. "To be playing with the best players in the world, it's going to be fun. I'm going to take it all in and really enjoy the moment."
