Darren Dreger of Hockey News reported on his X account (formerly Twitter) that Dawson Mercer and Jared McCann have been named to Team Canada, and Sidney Crosby is considering joining them. It was also learned that Nick Suzuki and Travis Konecny decided not to participate.
The 2024 Ice Hockey World Championship will take place from May 10 to 26 in Prague and Ostrava. Recall that the Russian national team will not participate in the tournament. Last year, the Canadian team won the World Cup.
It is also worth noting that the Pittsburgh Penguins team completed the 2023/2024 season, failing to qualify for the NHL playoffs.
