Wennberg will suit up for Team Sweden at the World Championships next month in Russia, The Columbus Dispatch reports.

Analysis:

The second-year center quietly put together a strong campaign, scoring eight goals and 40 points in 69 games with a minus-1 rating, an impressive defensive performance on a disappointing Blue Jackets squad. Wennberg will likely head up the Jackets' third line in 2016-2017, especially if the team can find a true No. 1 center this offseason.
