"Macklin Celebrini will not be the only San Jose Sharks centerman playing in the Olympics. Alexander Wennberg is going, too. Wennberg is among the 14 forwards who will represent Sweden at the Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina, it was announced Friday. Wennberg, now in his 12th season and his second with the Sharks, is tied for third on the team with 26 points in 40 games."
"His 19 assists are tied for second on the team and his 20:35 in average ice time leads all Sharks forwards. Wennberg, 31, is a native of Stockholm and was a first round draft choice, 14th overall, by the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2013. The other Swedish-born players on the Sharks' roster, forward William Eklund and defensemen John Klingberg and Timothy Liljegren, were not named to the 25-man team."
