A lot of these selections are based off of relationships and perceived fits. Yes, lots of great players miss out, but a great deal of that is due entirely to the teams staff that year more than merit.

He has been just under a PPG all year, and missed some games early. It's not a miss, he simply hasn't had 'wow' numbers, so far this year. I am not crapping on him, I'm just saying, that likely contributed to not getting an invite - tons of guys deserve an invite, and they go with the hot hands.
And yes, of course the people running it are going to favour guys they know. That's how life works. None the less, if he were the leading point getter among defensemen in the Q, he likely gets that invite. But he isn't.
