Hockey Canada also announced Saturday that forwards Hayley Wickenheiser and Vicky Sunohara will serve as her assistants as they did in 2002.
Sunohara and Wickenheiser have also played in seven world championships and both Olympic Games. Sunohara, a 35-year-old from Toronto, has 51 goals and 52 assists in 143 games for the national team.
