Two WHLers invited to USA's camp - Spokane forward Tyler Johnson (who played for USA last year as well) and Portland forward Luke Walker. In case you were wondering; yes, Walker did grow up in Canada but he has dual citizenship thanks to having been born in Connecticut.
There are nine other players on that roster who hail from WHL territories and whose CHL rights are owned by WHL clubs, but who are either playing NCAA or pursuing that route: goaltender Mike Lee (Portland Winterhawks), defencemen Justin Faulk (Tri-City Americans), Jake Gardiner (Kelowna Rockets) and Max Nicastro (Everett Silvertips), and forwards Chris Brown (Calgary Hitmen), Danny Kristo (Kelowna Rockets), Jordan Schroeder (Everett Silvertips), Derek Stepan (Calgary Hitmen), and Jason Zucker (Seattle Thunderbirds).
