Team Canada Junior will get into the swing of things tonight, as Dave Cameron's squad will face Russia in a warm-up game tonight. This will be the only exhibition game for the Canadian squad.
Among the players on the team, there are several quality Quebecers. Some of them will have an important role to play in this tournament, including Xavier Bourgault and Mavrik Bourque.
Bourgault, the Oilers' first pick in 2021, will play on Canada's first line with Shane Wright and Cole Perfetti. They will form a very dynamic and talented first unit.
As for Mavrik Bourque, first pick of the Dallas Stars in 2021, he will be on the right side of Mason McTavish and Kent Johnson on the second line. A well-balanced combination of raw talent and grit.
