It's certainly a surprise that Chris Wideman was preferred over Johnatan Kovacevic, but that's the case, as Kovacevic will officially be scratched from the roster.
Just asked about this in a media scrum earlier today, check out what head coach Martin St-Louis had to say:
"St-Louis about the players left out.
Armia: need for results
Kovacevic: it's going to stay between the two."

An interesting explanation to say the least, but hey, it'll be something to keep an eye on over the next few days.
