Bryan Rust is not going to the World Championships. He said his baby will be born in early May. Whatever the reason, he seems to be one of those guys who is not interested in putting on a USA jersey at all. That's a bit of an impression I got from the interview too. NTDP alum but its nothing new. If he had a small chance of making the Olympic team, now you can pretty much forget it. Grzelcyk is out of contract so unfortunately he is not going either. I understand that because next contract is very important for his career. He had a decent comeback year.
Joey Daccord says playing in the 2025 IIHF World Championship is a “possibility.”“We’ll see”
Possibility to play for who? I don't know. However, I know that it would be pretty nice to go to a tournament with Swayman and Daccord.
