Breaking down Canada’s 2025 World Junior Championship selection camp roster
Canada’s training camp will run in Ottawa from Dec. 10-13.

"Despite putting on a show as a college freshman, it always felt like Montreal Canadiens prospect Michael Hage was going to be left off this group. With so many high-end producers to choose from, Hage seemed like a bit of an outsider given his status as a college player. Hage has never represented Canada in international play – he was injured during the 2022 U-17 World Challenge and was left off the U-18 team entirely despite being one of the USHL’s most lethal players last year. We’ll see if Hockey Canada changes its tune next year with Hage because he’s clearly good enough to earn a roster spot."

How is this just shrugged at?

I will get banned again soon, worry not.
The WJC is not serious hockey and not worth risking injury to play in.
he didn't do the Canadian thing and go to CHL so he is blackballed
That was my point. And people think this is okay? Shouldn’t Canada ice the best possible team, or am I nuts?

Canada has never dressed the best team. Tons of talent left off the team every year.
They put a premium on returning players or other tourney or recent stats skewed to the CHL
they can fill 2 teams and still have medal hopes

It's Hockey Canada, like most minor hockey, they pick the players they know best. the players that have been in the program before, or the coaches knows, etc.

Not playing around anymore.
Two separate questions there
I know. That’s why there are two question marks.
both are true, we should ice the best and you are nuts

It seems like every 3 years or so, there is a bizzaro process in picking the squad and then they fail miserably in the tournament.
