"The Senators won the Battle of Ontario at the ballot box.

And not only did fans vote four Senators into the NHL all-star game starting lineup, the Ottawa Sun has learned that Daniel Alfredsson will be named one of the captains for the Jan. 29 game at Scotibank Place.

Toronto's Phil Kessel, who led the voting going into the final week of voting, was bumped out of the lineup.

Ottawa swept the three forward spots with Alfredsson, Jason Spezza and Milan Michalek getting in. Erik Karlsson will start on defence.

They'll be joined by Toronto defenceman Dion Phaneuf and Boston goalie Tim Thomas.

It was difficult for the players to hide their excitement after an outstanding final push by Ottawa fans."
