It was widely speculated that we could see both Alexis Lafrenière and K’Andre Miller representing their respective countries at the World Championship.

However, with the tournament just two days away, there are no signs of Lafrenière and Miller playing as it appears as if they won’t be joining Mika Zibanejad, Brett Berard, Will Cuylle, Juuso Parssinen, and Dylan Garand. It’s unclear if either Lafrenière and Miller are dealing with any injuries, but given that they are both young and still developing, this could have been a good opportunity for them to grow and showcase their skills on an international level. They also had what many considered to be down years for their standards and with a longer offseason, playing at the World Championship was an opportunity that likely would have been worthwhile for Lafrenière and Miller.
