Blackhawks prospects Dach, Teply, Krutil to travel to Edmonton for World Juniors

A trio of Blackhawks prospects will be heading to Edmonton ahead of the upcoming World Junior Championship.

Kirby Dach, the Blackhawks No. 3 overall pick in the 2019 NHL Draft, will play for Canada after being named to the 25-man roster that was revealed on Friday.

Representing Canada has become a common theme for Blackhawks prospects lately:

Kirby Dach will be the third player in the past three years from the #Blackhawks organization to play for Canada at #WorldJuniors.
