Ottawa native Brandt Clarke is leading Canada from the back as the Canadian team heads into the World Junior Championships gold medal game.
The 19-year-old defenceman has already achieved the dream of so many Canadians by being drafted by the Los Angeles Kings last year.
"It's a once-in-a-lifetime event, and could be and should be seen that way by him and certainly I feel that way, as I have a behind-the-scenes front row seat," Clarke told CTV News ahead of Canada's matchup with Czechia in the final. Despite playing behind the likes of star forwards Connor Bedard and Shane Wright, Clarke credits his son's experience and maturity for helping guide Canada's defence to the final game of the tournament.
Ahead of the final matchup, Clarke's tournament was punctuated with a goal in the 6-2 win over the United States in the semi-final.
