CALGARY - When a Hall of Famer is giving advice, it’s best to listen.

And when it came time to name Canada’s roster for the 2013 world junior championship, Spott, Canada’s head coach, took the words of Yzerman, who went into the Hall in 2009 following a prolific NHL career, to heart.

“I had a really wonderful time to spend with Steve and one thing he talked about was that you can never have too much skill on your hockey club,” Spott said. “There’s a lot of speed.”
