In a major announcement this morning, the Chicago Blackhawks revealed that defenseman
Seth Jones and
Alex Vlasic will be heading to Czechia to represent Team USA. This news comes as a shock, considering the star-studded lineups of the teams participating, featuring players like Zach Werenski,
Luke Hughes, Cole Caulfield, Johnny Gaudreau,
Brady Tkachuk,
Trevor Zegras, and more, for a young rookie like Alex Vlasic to receive such an invitation is monumental.
