Carter George hopes to inspire Thunder Bay, Ont.'s next crop of NHL talent

Thunder Bay has long been known as a hockey hotbed, sending dozens of local players to the National Hockey League, and even a pair of players to the Hockey Hall of Fame. Yet, when it comes to the annual World Junior Ice Hockey Championships, Thunder Bay’s representation is comparatively low. This year’s tournament marked the second World Juniors selection for Thunder Bay’s Carter George, whose selection in last year’s event marked the first time a player from the city was selected since Mackenzie Blackwood in 2016.
