QUÉBEC — Veteran forward Sarah Nurse has been removed from the Canadian women’s hockey team selection camp roster for the upcoming world championship and replaced by college forward Alexia Aubin.
Hockey Canada announced the change Thursday in a social media post on X on the first day of camp in Quebec City and didn’t give a reason for it.
In an email later in the day, a Hockey Canada spokesperson said Nurse declined the camp invitation and the organization will respect her decision.
Since Nurse was included on the initial invite list, she would still be a part of the team’s process through camp, the spokesperson added.
