Will Macklin Celebrini still be Team Canada captain?

On Tuesday, Hockey Canada announced that Sidney Crosby will join their 2026 World Championships roster. The Pittsburgh Penguins center’s NHL season ended in a first-round loss to the Philadelphia Flyers last week.

Previously, the 19-year-old San Jose Sharks superstar was named the team’s captain. However, it would make sense for Hockey Canada to give the “C” to the legendary Crosby, who captained the team at the Olympics in February. John Tavares and Ryan O’Reilly are currently alternate captains under Celebrini.
