Dallas Stars Prospect Update: World Juniors Underway For Dellandrea, Eriksson, Back

The 2020 IIHF World Junior Championship is now in full swing after kicking off on Boxing Day. And when it comes to exciting hockey, few other events can compare to the WJC.

The Dallas Stars usually have a few different prospects in the tournament, and this year is no exception, with forwards Ty Dellandrea (Canada), Albin Eriksson (Sweden) and Oskar Back (Sweden) all in action.

Dellandrea is easily the most high-profile of the trio. He started the event in a dedicated shutdown role, but with an injury to Alexis Lafreniere and a suspension to Joe Veleno, he began taking on more ice time in other situations.
