Montreal Canadiens fans cheering for Canada at the World Juniors this year may be rooting for one player in particular.
Today, Hockey Canada announced its 30-player selection camp roster for the upcoming 2024 World Juniors, and Canadiens prospect Owen Beck is on the list.
Montreal already got a glimpse of the centre last season, when he made his Habs debut and suited up for a game against the Ottawa Senators back in January.
This year, he’s been lighting it up in the OHL with the Peterborough Petes, netting 15 goals and 25 points in 23 games.
As one of the league’s most dynamic forwards, there’s a good chance Beck, drafted 33rd overall back in 2022, impresses at Canada’s upcoming training sessions.
Camp is scheduled for December 10-13 in Oakville, Ontario, while the World Juniors will run from December 26 to January 5 in Gothenburg, Sweden. Canada’s first matchup comes on Boxing Day when it takes on Finland at 5:30 am PT/8:30 am ET.
