This kid Adam Fox is having a fine year for Harvard - Of course, you wonder if his Ivy league mouth will get him in trouble at some point

Fox, who is just 18, was named to the preliminary US World Junior team roster. He has a big opportunity to continue his development against some of the best young players in the world.

"Obviously it is a huge honor for me," said Fox. "I was able to go to the camp this summer. Not many people have this opportunity, I am trying to go there to do my best, while also enjoying the moment."

Being part of U.S. teams is hardly new. Fox played for the USNTDP, a path he credits to giving him advantages in comparison to other players coming into college hockey. He will go in as the ECAC's lone represenatative.

"It is definitely huge," Fox said. "It is always great to see where you stack up against some of the top players. It will definitely be a big focal point, if I am able to make it, to see how I matchup with some of the best players in the world.

Flames sure wasted a good performance from Chad Johnson last night - Big game coming up on Wednesday night versus the Sharks, could be a barometer for how the rest of the season might shake out for the Flames (playoff contenders or pretenders).

Oh please, Shea Weber is 100% this year's Drew Doughty "He should win for career accomplishments" guy. Unless he gets hurt in the second half I'll be stunned if he doesn't win it. I expect nothing less from the PHWA.

Oh sure, he doesn't have issues stopping the puck in practice...
