Victor Mete uncertain where he goes next after winning world junior gold
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Victor Mete is uncertain of what’s next for him after winning gold at the world junior hockey championship.
The 2016 fourth-round pick of the Canadiens started the season in Montreal and played 27 games with the Habs before he was loaned to Hockey Canada for the world juniors.
Mete is eligible to return to Montreal since he was on loan, or he can be sent to the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League.
A return to the OHL makes Mete eligible to represent Canada at the 2018 Winter Olympics in February. Canada’s Olympic management team, led by general manager Sean Burke, was in attendance scouting during the Under-20 tournament.
