Though he was part of the team’s selection camp ahead of the 2021 World Juniors Championship, to be held in Edmonton, Alberta later this month, San Jose Sharks prospect and University of Michigan star forward Thomas Bordeleau was shockingly not listed on Team USA’s final 25-player roster announced on Saturday by USA Hockey.
Unfortunately, Boston Bruins prospect, Michigan teammate and Bordeleau’s roommate John Beecher tested positive for COVID-19 early Saturday morning. Due to Bordeleau’s exposure to Beecher, he was deemed ineligible to play in the tournament. So far, Bordeleau has not tested positive for the coronavirus.
