Team Canada captain Kirby Dach is out for the remainder of the world juniors after suffering an injury during an exhibition game against Russia on Wednesday, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie.

Doctors are still assessing Dach's injury, but the Chicago Blackhawks forward apparently won't be ready for the start of the NHL season Jan. 13.

The 19-year-old did not represent Canada at the event in 2019 after cracking the Blackhawks' roster last October. He was available this year because of the delayed start to the NHL campaign.

Dach tallied eight goals and 23 points over 64 games during his rookie season for Chicago in 2019-20. He added a goal and six points through nine playoff contests.
