Aaron Ekblad was hit high last night by Leo Komarov. That should explain why he's out tonight. #tvasports

Team North America has announced that Aaron Ekblad is out tonight because an upper body injury. Jacob Trouba is in.

Re: Aaron Ekblad
Damn. I missed hearing that, so thanks for the update.
Too bad because he's NA's best defenceman.

Concussion. Should be done for the tournament if Florida has anything to say about it.

Re: Aaron Ekblad
shame as the NA team lose a little something without him...
Experience is the teacher of all things.
Re: Aaron Ekblad
Told Ekblad is feeling much better today. Sense is he will probably stay with Team NA, but will not play if there is any risk.

Re: Aaron Ekblad
will be interesting to see the fall out from this if he did play...

Re: Aaron Ekblad
If Florida wants can they just call the Team North America GM and say "Send him home!" ? or how does that work
Re: Aaron Ekblad
I'm not sure about the official protocol, but I would imagine they (FLA management) could voice their concern and desire for Ekblad, and be appeased by the team (and Ekblad).
Re: Aaron Ekblad
Watching Leafs Lunch on TSN and apparently according to George Richards (Miami Herald) said on twitter that the Florida Panthers have told Team North America that they dont want Aaron Ekblad playing in this tournament.
