COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -USA Hockey today named 31 players to the preliminary roster of its 2022 U.S. National Junior Team. The group, which includes six members of the gold medal-winning 2021 U.S. National Junior Team and two members of the bronze medal-winning 2021 U.S. Men's National Team, will gather for a training camp at USA Hockey Arena in Plymouth, Mich., starting Dec. 12.

"We're excited about the group we've named to the preliminary roster," said John Vanbiesbrouck, general manager of the 2022 U.S. National Junior Team and also the assistant executive director of hockey operations for USA Hockey. "Thanks to the efforts of so many coaches and volunteers across the country, our talent pool is deep, and we'll have some very difficult decisions to make to get to our final roster."
