Canada Hopes Eight Returnees Anchor World Junior Team
Coach Stan Butler relies on eight returnees from last year’s third place squad to anchor Canada’s world junior lineup. Goaltender Maxime Ouellet and defencemen Steve McCarthy Barret Jackman Jay Bouwmeester anchor a group with Dany Heatley Jason Spezza and Amade Lundmark who gained Sweden experience. Only 22 of 34 will make Russia squad, McCarthy’s NHL-release status boosts belief in the eight.
