Corey Perry isn't done playing competitive hockey this spring.

The Anaheim Ducks forward will suit up for Canada at the World Hockey Championship in Russia in May, Hockey Canada announced Thursday.

Perry and the Ducks were eliminated by the Nashville Predators in Game 7 of their first-round series Wednesday night.

The 30-year-old winger has represented Canada three times, winning two Olympic gold medals (2010 and 2014) and one gold at the World Junior Hockey Championship in 2005.

Hockey Canada also confirmed the additions of Minnesota Wild defenseman Matt Dumba and New York Rangers forward Derick Brassard to the Canadian roster.
