Hello prospect lovers, seldo fans, and people who were tricked into clicking on this by google. It was your typical week for the kids, Bracco had four points, Brooks had seven, and Stephen Desrocher got into the spirit by putting up four himself

The World Junior camp invite lists came out, and from the CHL/NCAA kids we saw Nikita Korostelev get invited to join the Russians, Jeremy Bracco and Joseph Woll on Team USA’s camp list, and while it isn’t a huge announcement, Martins Dzierkals will be leading Latvia into the main group this year after helping them win Div1A last year.

Speaking of Martins, he missed this week with a lower body injury. His coach in Rouyn-Noranda said it wasn’t serious and he should be back on this ice this week and will play at the WJC.

For a reporters view of the Rangers road trip, check out Josh Brown’s blog on the Waterloo Record website. He’s a great OHL reporter, and a fast driver if he got from Ottawa to Waterloo in 5 hours....

Everyone stays on their pace, I’ve fixed JD Greenway (goddamn NCAA sites). Dakota Joshua is progressing nicely in his NCAA career, and JJ Piccinich is taking advantage of the extra ice time as well.

That’s it for this week. See everyone next week.

We’re only 20 days from the World Juniors starting up. Can’t wait.
