Seeley, an Olds, Alberta native, currently ranks second on the Silvertips in scoring with six goals and 15 assists.

Zellweger represented Canada at the U-18 World Junior Championship last year, notching a goal and seven assists in seven games en route to a Gold Medal.

Further representing the Silvertips at World Juniors is Everett head coach and general manager Dennis Williams, who will be serving as an assistant coach for Hockey Canada.

Selection Camp will run from Dec. 9-12, 2021 at the WinSport Arena at Canada Olympic Park. It will include practices and two games against a team of U SPORTS all-stars on December 11 and 12 before the team heads to Banff, Alta., for a training camp, December 14-19.
