In a recent article for The Athletic, Pierre LeBrun gave his take on who might steer Team Canada should there be a 2025 World Cup of Hockey or if the NHLers play in the 2026 Olympics.

NHL Insider Weighs In for Next GM of Team Canada

"My understanding is that St. Louis Blues GM Doug Armstrong, the GM of the 2016 World Cup champion team and GM of the would-be 2022 Team Canada had NHLers gone to China, is the front-runner to run Team Canada again.

Beyond his World Cup experience, Armstrong has shown his talents in the recent World Hockey Championships held in Finland and clinched a Stanley Cup for the St. Louis Blues in 2019.

Team Canada's Executive Roster Might See New Faces, LeBrun Believes

LeBrun also hinted that Team Canada's management team might welcome some new members. One of the potential entrants could be the budding GM Kyle Dubas, now with the Pittsburgh Penguins and previously with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

It wouldn't surprise me to see some new faces as part of the next management team, though. For example, I could see Kyle Dubas being approached to be part of it." - Pierre LeBrun

It's well-known that players are passionate when it comes to representing their countries on an international stage. Evidently, this enthusiasm is shared among the managerial ranks too.
