Cameron Burt, Evan Bloodoff, Austin Levi, and Danick Gauthier. Henry is the lone listed veteran on the team, and just yesterday was named the Everblades team Captain.   Henry will wear the “C” on his jersey, after three-year captain Mathieu Roy signed to play this season overseas in England.  Henry will be supported by his assistant captains Mike Little, Mike Cornell, and Tyson Gimblett.Experienced netminder Allen York and rookie Daniel Altshuller open up as the goaltending tandem for the ‘Blades.  York has a wealth of American Hockey League experience, and has played in 11 National Hockey League contests with the Columbus Blue Jackets in the 2011-12 season.  Altshuller is a second round draft selection of the Carolina Hurricanes.Forward Adam Brace returns after a one-year hiatus from the ‘Blades.  Brace joined the Everblades as a rookie in the Spring of 2013 and went onto lead the ‘Blades in scoring in the 2013 Kelly Cup playoffs posting 15 points.Key Players: Everblades Head Coach Greg Poss believes that forward Evan Bloodoff has the potential to be an elite player and could put up career best numbers this season....
