[News] Dube recalled on an emergency basis

[Strange Brew]

Yeah the last thing you do now is change the team dynamics for the playoffs. The black aces are kind of separated from the team from what I understand.

Dube was dynamic in the game we watched him play against Colorado.

Really phenomenal depth in this organization right now, with one exception... goaltending.

Did you read the link that I posted? The Penguins' group last year was 14 players, three more than the size of the Flames contingent that I proposed. Two years ago, the Penguins recalled 11 players. And yes, Black Aces typically travel with the team, especially as the rounds progress -- it's why they were all available to hoist the Stanley Cup when the Capitals were playing the Knights in Vegas last year. They always have to be ready to jump in.

Obviously there are no rules around black aces, so I concede with the Penguins. Heard it differently with the King and Blackhawk teams before them, but hell could be wrong there too!
