Minten and Cowan Will Represent Canada at the World Junior Championship

The Canada played their first exhibition game on Tuesday afternoon. Here's the players we saw on the ice:

"Team 🇨🇦 lines for exhibition game No. 1

Cowan - Geekie - Savoie
Minten - Celebrini - Dumais
Rehkopf - Yager - Wood
Allard - Beck - Danielson

Mateychuk - Lamoureux
Furlong - Bonk
Molendyk - Warren

Rousseau starts
St-Hilaire

Scratches: Poitras (rest), Luneau (sick), Ratzlaff"

While seeing Minten make the team isn't surprising, the same thing can't be said for Cowan. It's safe to say not a lot of people expected this to happen, especially not on the team's first line.
Of course, in exhibition games, coaches like to test some players and see what they can bring to the team.
Team Canada will play its first official game on the 26, against Finland. It'll be interesting to see where Minten and Cowen end up on the lineup, with Matthew Poitras possible taking a spot on the first line.
Who do you think will score more points in the tournament?
