Bowen Byram invited to Canada’s National Junior Team Selection Camp

Hockey Canada has added Cranbrook’s Bowen Byram to their National Junior Team Selection Camp in Red Deer.

Last year, Byram represented Canada at the 2020 World Juniors in the Czech Republic, where he played seven games and recorded two assists. Canada would capture gold in a 4-3 win over Russia.

Byram is among 46 total players invited to Selection Camp, which opens November 16th. Canada’s Selection Camp roster includes 26 forwards, 15 defencemen, and 5 goaltenders.

The 2021 World Juniors will be held in a competition bubble in Edmonton and Red Deer from December 26th to January 5th. Byram and Canada will look to capture their third gold medal in four years, after previously winning in 2018 and 2020.
