Will Macklin Celebrini still be Team Canada captain?<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, Hockey Canada announced that Sidney Crosby<\/a> will join their 2026 World Championships roster. The Pittsburgh Penguins center\u2019s NHL season ended in a first-round loss to the Philadelphia Flyers last week.<\/p>\n Previously, the 19-year-old San Jose Sharks superstar was named the team\u2019s captain. However, it would make sense for Hockey Canada to give the \u201cC\u201d to the legendary Crosby, who captained the team at the Olympics in February. John Tavares and Ryan O\u2019Reilly are currently alternate captains under Celebrini.<\/p>\n Meet the captains! \/ Voici nos capitaines! \ud83c\udde8\ud83c\udde6<\/p>\n C: Macklin Celebrini (@BCHockey_Source<\/a>) \u2014 Hockey Canada (@HockeyCanada) May 10, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n The World Championships begin on May 15.<\/p>\n AT SAN JOSE HOCKEY NOW\u2026. <\/p>\n Christian Kirsch<\/a> has led the Kitchener Rangers to the Memorial Cup.
