Parker Wotherspoon will play for Canada at the upcoming World Championship, set to be held May 15-31 in Zurich and Fribourg, Switzerland. It will be his first time representing Canada since the 2015 U18 championship.
Sidney Crosby was asked at the Penguins' locker room clean out day about his potential participation, and he just said, "I haven't even had any discussions or anything like that." He also alluded to the possibility of needing more offseason rehab for his lower-body injury, so that could be a factor in him not opting to go.
Wotherspoon joins Connor Clifton and Tommy Novak, both on Team USA, as the Penguins' confirmed participants in the tournament. Arturs Silovs didn't rule out his participation at the Penguins' locker room clean out day, citing his knee injury as the reason for his uncertainty.
