Scratch Carey Price's name off the list.

The Montreal Canadiens netminder will not suit up for Team Canada at the upcoming World Championships, reports TSN's Pierre LeBrun.

It's been an injury-riddled campaign for Price, who's been limited to just 16 wins in 46 appearances this season. Meanwhile, when he has been in the crease, he hasn't looked like the Price of old, as he owns a career-worst .902 save percentage and 3.07 GAA.

Price returned to action last Wednesday after missing 13 games with a concussion. He also missed 10 games earlier this year with a lower-body injury.

The possibility existed that Price, whose Canadiens will not qualify for the Stanley Cup Playoffs, could use the World Championships to get his game back on track, but it's now a moot point given Thursday's report.

Price has previously suited up for Canada at the Winter Olympics, World Cup, and World Juniors, but he has never participated in the World Championships.

The 2018 World Championships will be hosted in Denmark and begin May 4.
