Dylan Cozens named alternate captain for Team Canada at World Juniors

EDMONTON, AB – Dylan Cozens, of the Lethbridge Hurricanes, will wear an “A” as one of two alternate captains for Team Canada at the World Juniors in Edmonton.

He, and fellow 2020 gold medalist Bowen Byram (Cranbrook, B.C./Vancouver, WHL), will serve alongside Kirby Dach (Fort Saskatchewan, Alta./Chicago, NHL) who has been named team captain.

“These three players are all leaders in their own right who have the respect of their teammates.

Bowen and Dylan are veterans who know what it takes to win at this tournament, and their voices will be important in our leadership group.”
