"SAN JOSE San Jose Sharks prospects Michael Misa and Josh Ravensbergen were two of the 27 players named Monday to Canada's National Junior Team training camp roster, and are now in the running to play for their country at the upcoming IIHF World Junior Championships. The 18-year-old, Misa, taken second overall by the Sharks at the NHL Draft in June, was one of 15 forwards invited to the camp, which will run from Dec. 12-22 in Niagara Falls, Ontario."
"Ravensbergen, taken 30th overall by the Sharks in June's draft, is one of three goalies on the camp roster. Ravensbergen was named the WHL's Goalie of the Month for November after he won eight of 10 starts and posted a .940 save percentage. Misa, surprisingly, did not get an invite from Hockey Canada to take part in last year's World Junior selection camp, but still went on to record 134 points in 65 games with the Saginaw Spirit."
"Misa had three points in seven games with the Sharks this season before he sustained a right ankle sprain on Nov. 5 during a morning skate in Seattle. But he progressed from the injury in recent weeks, was placed on long-term injured reserve last week, and is now on a conditioning assignment with the San Jose Barracuda of the AHL."
