San Jose Sharks defenceman Marc-Edouard Vlasic will be joining Team Canada at the World Hockey Championship in Denmark, according to TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger. 

Vlasic, a native of Montreal, Que., is set to join the club following the Sharks' elimination at the hands of the Vegas Golden Knights in six games. 

In 81 regular-season games this past season, the 31-year-old Vlasic had 11 goals and 21 assists. He followed that up with two assists in 10 games during the postseason. 

Canada dropped the first game of the tournament against the United States but rebounded with wins over Korea and Denmark to move to 2-1. They will next take on Norway in Herning on Thursday.
