<p>The Canucks’ Young Stars will be tested by a Calgary Flames team that has shown well in this tournament.

<p>Other notable Flames players include Andrew Basha, a recent second-round pick who racked up 85 points with the Medicine Hat Tigers, and Matvei Gridin, their second of two first-round selections in the 2024 draft.

Brzustewicz has had a strong tournament, contributing a goal and an assist across his two games.</p>
<p>On the Canucks’ side, the top line of Arshdeep Bains, Aatu Räty, and Jonathan Lekkerimäki continues to highlight the roster.

<p>With no morning skate, official lineups are yet to be confirmed, but it is expected that AHL-signed goaltender Jonathan Lemieux will get the nod in net for the Canucks as they aim to close out the tournament with a perfect record.</p>
