Hockey Canada announced a roster change to Canada’s National Junior Team on Thursday.

Forward Jaden Schwartz (Wilcox, Sask./Colorado College, WCHA) will not be able to play for the duration of the 2011 IIHF World Junior Championship, after suffering an ankle injury in Canada’s game against Czech Republic on December 28, 2010.

Canada’s final game of the preliminary round is on December 31 against Sweden.
