‘A huge honor’: Donovan Sebrango helps lead Canada at 2022 World Juniors – NHL
“I wanted to come in and have a good tournament before camp and I think I did that,” the 20-year-old said. “I felt really good.”
The defenseman said being entrusted with a leadership role didn’t alter his mentality.
“You don’t change anything,” Sebrango said. “You just try to come in every day and be a leader for the guys. It was definitely a huge honor and something I’ll remember for the rest of my life.”
I like this kid.
Ivan Ivan’s going to be attending the Red Wings’ prospect tournament as a try-out – TMR
Ivan only posted 1 point in 7 games for the Czechs at the World Juniors, but he’s coming off a 65-points-in-65-games season (31 goals and 34 assists) for Cape Breton this past year (with an ugly -52 on a struggling team). His father Marek was a long-time European pro at various levels of competition.
Ivan is still technically draft eligible but this is one of those camp tryout things that a kid his age is going to try to finagle into an AHL deal if he can.
