Is Nick Suzuki bitter toward Hockey Canada's leadership for being overlooked during the Four Nations Face-Off back in February?
Maybe, but regardless, following the tournament in which Canada defeated the United States, the offensive production of number 14 spiked, as he tallied 37 points in 26 games.
Nick Suzuki isn't the only Canadiens player who received an invitation to represent Canada.
Defensemen Kaiden Guhle and Michael Matheson were also invited, and Matheson accepted the challenge.
