Team Canada has announced the invitees for the World Junior Championship U20 training camp. Among the 32 players invited are six Tampa Bay Lightning prospects. That’s three more players than any other NHL organization. The Montreal Canadiens and Carolina Hurricanes each have three representatives.
Goaltender Connor Ingram, along with forwards Anthony Cirelli, Brett Howden, Mathieu Joseph, Taylor Raddysh, and Mitchell Stephens, are the Lightning invitees. Taylor Raddysh was the only player of the six that did not participate in Team Canada’s pre-season camp. Defenseman Matthew Spencer was at that camp, but was not brought back for the training camp prior to the tournament.
