Guelph Storm defenseman and Sharks prospect Ryan Merkley has been named to the Team OHL roster for the 2018 CIBC Canada Russia Series.
Team OHL is made up of likely league all-stars and national junior team hopefuls who will compete against the Russian National Junior Team in Game 3 of a six-game cross Canada series. The OHL stops will be in Sarnia on Thursday, November 8 and in Oshawa on Monday, November 12. The series — an annual event dating back to 2003 — will begin with two games in the Western Hockey League and will wrap up with two games played in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
