North Vancouver's Martin Jones was one of 19 players named to Team Canada's opening roster for the 2015 IIHF World Championship scheduled for May 1-17 in Prague and Ostrava, Czech Republic.

Jones was the primary backup goaltender for the Los Angeles Kings for the past two seasons, posting a 16-11-2 record with seven shutouts over that time span playing behind Jonathan Quick. Jones will team up with Mike Smith of the Arizona Coyotes to man the pipes for Team Canada.
