Landon DuPont, who I believe is the captain for Team Canada.
Th- this guy's, you know, got exceptional status granted to him to play in the WHL.
Just a, a tremendous, you know, offensive defenseman.
I think those guys are, you know, we're seeing it.
Y- you saw it in the draft this past year where Dax and Rudolph got, you know, went a little higher than probably a lot of us were kind of maybe expecting going to the draft.
But, you know, he- exciting young defenseman, a guy that can control, the play.
He's an, he's a guy that's got me excited, but there, there's a number of tw- 2028 guys that we're gonna have to wait a while on who are probably gonna be just as, interesting to watch in terms of grabbing that spotlight at this tournament.
Indeed.
And Landon DuPont headed for the University of Michigan this fall.
That'll be exciting.
For me, on top of being- That's sad.
That's not exciting.
He should be at the University of Denver.
Of Denver?
Yes.
You don't have any room on your blue line- that, that's true between Ryan, Lynn, Jackson, Ru- like, where's he gonna play?
I, I agree.
No, I'm excited for him.
Yeah, you'll be- you'll be fine.
Denver will be fine.
Yeah, on, on top of DuPont, Alexi Joseph, for Team Canada out of the queue.
He's, to me, is gonna be very interesting to watch.
He's a pure center, 6'4", moves really well, plays that sort of power Nathan MacKinnon game.
And then Milan Sundstrom, whose dad Nicholas played in the NHL, he has already got an overtime winner where he went end to end against Slovakia yesterday.
This is a kid with a lot of upside coming out of Sweden, so he'll be interesting to watch.
