Overview

  • ESPN reported he has been named to Canada’s 25-man roster for Milano-Cortina, with Hockey Canada set to unveil selections Wednesday at 9 a.m. PT.
  • He ranks third in NHL scoring with 60 points in 39 games and logged his league-leading 10th three-point performance of the season on Monday.
  • He briefly exited after taking a puck to the face in Anaheim, then returned to finish a 5-4 win with a goal and two assists.
  • Sharks teammates William Eklund and Zack Ostapchuk publicly pushed for his selection, and Canada assistant GM Jim Nill lauded his two-way play as decisions approached.
  • San Jose is 13-2-1 when he records two or more points and 5-15-1 when he has one or fewer, a split that has fueled record-chase talk and Hart Trophy buzz.
