It was a bit of a surprise when Carels was added to Canada's training camp roster, but not only did he make the team, he started the tournament in the top six over fellow draft-eligible prospect Keaton Verhoeff.

Carels was fine throughout the tournament, but he was often playing in a reduced role and was eventually healthy scratched for a couple of games. He looked his best when paired with Verhoeff, but both draft-eligible defenders had some ups and downs.
