Sharks Prospects Participating In This Year's World Juniors

 One of the biggest showcases in the hockey world is starting in just a matter of days in the Edmonton bubble that held the most recent Stanley Cup Playoffs. The same protocols will be in place that made this past Stanley Cup Playoffs possible to keep everyone on each team safe. All IIHF World Junior Championship games will be televised on NHL Network in the US and TSN in Canada. 

Here are the players in the Sharks organization participating in the World Juniors this year and which country they will be representing: 

  • Artemi Kniazev, defenseman, Russia (2019 2nd round pick)
  • Yegor Spiridonov, forward, Russia (2019 4th round pick)
  • Santeri Hatakka, defenseman, Finland (2019 6th round pick) 
  • Adam Raska, forward, Czech Republic (2020 7th round pick) 

 I may not be as familiar with prospects as I am with NHL roster players, but good luck to those representing the Sharks in the World Juniors. On the other hand, I want the US and Canada to medal in the tournament this year and think they will perform pretty well.
