One again Sam Richard gets snubbed by the AUS. At least he made the second team this year.

And just because Charlie Callaghan made the FISU team (and was among the lowest minutes of the d-men there ) does not make him a first-teamer in my book. Yes, he deserved to be on the all-rookie team last year, but he was -16 this seaon compared to -2 last season, and had no game winning goals compared to 3 last year. They must have only looked at points, because Conner Olson is a better defenceman, and it shows in his +19. And if it was points, Busby had far more, but he ended up on the 2nd team. Very suspicious.

Part of the continuing anti New Brunswick bias in the voting. UPEI and StFX go out first round yet they manage to snag six of the all-star and all-rookie spots. Moncton gets two, and it's the same guy - Darveau.
 
Olson is the most underrated player in the conference …
It’s the same in the NHL with the Norris , it’s become a scoring contest for defenceman , Charlie McAvoy is never going to win a Norris because he doesn’t score enough .

Couple of things - I think voting is done before the playoffs and, as I've said many times in the past, there are deals made.

You need to get away from the "world hates UNB" mindset. There will always be picks that I may not agree with, but no one asked me. Fans will always second guess everything.

You picked your All-UNB teams earlier. Be happy with that.
 
My biggest gripe is that the leading goal scorer in Canada wasn’t the rookie of the year . I also get the politics of the entire thing .
