Svenska

Hockey Canada meddelade på tisdagen att forwardarna Porter Martone och Dawson Mercer ansluter till landslaget inför VM-premiären mot Sverige på fredag.

19-årige Martone, som valdes som sjätte spelare totalt av Philadelphia Flyers i 2025 års NHL-draft, imponerade under sina första nio grundspelsmatcher med tio poäng. Han deltog tidigare i två matcher för Kanada under förra årets turnering i Stockholm, men fick då begränsad speltid. Mercer tillför erfarenhet från världsmästerskapen 2022 och 2024 och noterades för 42 poäng på 82 matcher med New Jersey Devils den här säsongen.
