Jets loan Perfetti to Canada’s world junior selection camp

The Winnipeg Jets have loaned forward Cole Perfetti to Team Canada for its selection camp prior to the upcoming 2022 World Junior Championship, the team announced Friday.

Hockey Canada released the full list of invitees to the selection camp on Wednesday, with the camp taking place Dec. 9-13.

Perfetti was selected with the 10th pick in the 2020 NHL Draft by the Jets. Since being drafted, he's collected 41 points in 49 games with the AHL's Manitoba Moose over the last two campaigns and is scoreless in two games with Winnipeg this season.

After failing to make the roster in 2020, the 19-year-old had six points in seven games with Team Canada in last year's world juniors but failed to capture a gold medal, falling to the United States in the championship game.
