Not to say their play earned it, but I'm a little surprised none of the young forwards are coming up as Black Aces.
Bourgault's the big name, but, and I'm surprised Hamblin isn't up. Same with Cags, who still knows quite a few guys in the dressing room.
On defence Niemo's a surprising exclusion, but he just came back from a concussion before the playoffs and odds are still isn't 100%.
Tullio, Savoie, Petrov, and Wanner are also waiving "hi."
However in the age of smartphones, I can see the logic of not letting a bunch of early 20 year olds with zero responsibility but close ties to the team loose in the city.
