Buffalo has 3 prospects competing for Team USA.
The Buffalo Sabres have three prospects competing for Team USA at the 2026 IIHF World Junior Championship, which is being held in St. Paul, Minnesota from Dec. 26 to Jan. 5.
Forward Brodie Ziemer (3rd round, 2024) and defenseman Adam Kleber (2nd round, 2024) are looking to defend their gold medal as they suit up for Team USA for the second straight year. They’re joined by defenseman Luke Osburn (4th round, 2024), making his first appearance in the tournament.
Ziemer has been named captain for the United States. Read his thoughts going into the tournament here<\/a><\/strong>.
Defenseman Radim Mrtka, selected by the Sabres with the ninth-overall pick in this past summer\u2019s NHL Draft, may also play for Czechia, but has been left off its roster to start the tournament due to an injury. The team is awaiting more information on his status before finalizing its roster.

Ziemer was on the top line for the United States alongside James Hagens and Will Horcoff. Ziemer finished with a primary assist after he scooped up a loose puck following Hagens\u2019 forecheck and found a wide-open Horcoff in the slot to make it 3-0.

Kleber added an assist on the opening goal after he blocked a shot on a Germany 2-on-1, rifled the puck up the wall to Teddy Stiga whose breakaway attempt deflected off the post and onto Max Plante\u2019s stick. Kleber finished plus-4 on the top U.S. defensive pair with Cole Hutson.
