Haula, 23, scored four goals in the Wid's 13 playoff games, including the only goal in Tuesday night's 2-1 loss to Chicago that eliminated the Wild from the Stanley Cup playoffs. He had a plus-14 rating in 46 games with the Wild and also played 31 games for the Wild's minor-league team in Iowa.
This will mark the fourth time Haula, who played college hockey for the University of Minnesota, has represented Finland in international competition.
Finland has a 1-2 record through the preliminary round of the tournament and so far is the only Wild player to join a team.
