Canada will have a pair of general managers for the 2018 IIHF World Championship.
Sean Burke and Martin Brodeur have been named co-GMs by Hockey Canada, the governing body announced Monday.
Burke served as GM of Canada's bronze-medal winning men's team at the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang; Brodeur was on the management team while concurrently working as the assistant GM for the St. Louis Blues.
Canada will begin play at the World Championship in Denmark on May 4 against the United States.
In 2017, Canada lost to Sweden in a shootout in the gold-medal game.
