I'm a little surprised Poirier didn't make the selection either. The style of game he plays would fit extremely well at any spot in lineup. He's got the hands to play top-6, but he's also got the nastiness and physicality to play bottom-6. He's a pretty versatile player and would probably come in handy in the World Juniors.
Oh well, is what it is. It's disappointing but what can you do?
