Canada adds defenceman Jorian Donovan to world juniors pre-tournament camp

Dec 22, 2023 | 4:11 PM

Hockey Canada has added defenceman Jorian Donovan to its pre-tournament camp for the world junior men’s hockey championship.

The move comes after defenceman Tanner Molendyk sustained an upper-body injury Friday in a tune-up game against Switzerland.

Donovan has not yet been added to the team’s roster for the tournament, which runs from Dec. 26 to Jan. 5 in Gothenburg, Sweden.

The 19-year-old Donovan, son of former NHL player Shean Donovan, was drafted in the fifth round, 136th overall, by the Ottawa Senators in 2022.
