Hockey Canada Announces Roster For 2023 Hlinka Gretzky Cup

July 12, 2023 at 4:44 pm CDT | by Josh Erickson 2 Comments

The Hlinka Gretzky Cup is the first major international tournament of the new league year, and it’s the first major international event for 2024 NHL Draft hopefuls. Today, Hockey Canada revealed their contingent for this year’s event, which starts July 31 and runs through the middle of August. Canada has won the U-18 tournament in three of the past five occurrences, only interrupted by wins from Russia in 2020 and 2022 – as with all other international events, they’re no longer allowed to participate due to their ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

Canada’s full roster for the tournament is as follows:

F Maxim Masse (Chicoutimi, QMJHL)
*F Malcolm Spence (Erie, OHL)
F Justin Poirier (Baie-Comeau, QMJHL)
*F Roger McQueen (Brandon, WHL)
F Berkly Catton (Spokane, WHL)
*F Jordan Gavin (Tri-City, WHL)
F Ryder Ritchie (Prince Albert, WHL)
F Cole Beaudoin (Barrie, OHL)
F Ollie Josephson (Red Deer, WHL)
*F Porter Martone (Mississauga, OHL)
F Liam Greentree (Windsor, OHL)
*F Michael Misa (Saginaw, OHL)
F Carson Wetsch (Calgary, WHL)
F Cayden Lindstrom (Medicine Hat, WHL)

D Sam Dickinson (London, OHL)
D Ben Danford (Oshawa, OHL)
D Frankie Marrelli (Ottawa, OHL)
D Anthony Cristoforo (Windsor, OHL)
D Charlie Elick (Brandon, WHL)
D Henry Mews (Ottawa, OHL)
D Zayne Parekh (Saginaw, OHL)

G Ryerson Leenders (Mississauga, OHL)
*G Gabriel D’Aigle (Victoriaville, QMJHL)
G Carter George (St. Mary’s, GOJHL)

*Not draft-eligible until 2025

Headlining the forward group is Misa, already the front-runner for the first-overall selection in 2025. The 5-foot-11 center notched over a point per game in his age-15 season for Saginaw after being granted exceptional status into the OHL, finishing second on the team with 56 points in just 45 games.

There’s also Berkly Catton, a potential top-five selection come draft day in 2024. Catton appeared for Canada at last year’s IIHF U-18 World Championship and notched 23 goals and 55 points in 63 games for a struggling Spokane team.

The defense is dotted with three likely top-15 picks in 2024 – Dickinson, Mews, and Parekh, all of whom are already garnering significant attention from scouts. Parekh, a teammate of Misa’s in Saginaw, opened a lot of eyes last year while scoring 21 goals in 50 games, finishing third on the team in scoring despite being a blueliner.

    Why no Celebrini? Is this a Hockey Canada quirk that blocks out players not buying into Major Junior route?
