Brayden Schenn, World Jrs

Team Canada's World Junior camp looks to be nicely underway. As camp and the tournament progress, it would be great to use this thread for all talk related to the only Wheat King to play in this year's (A) tournament.
Just taking a look through the first couple of intrasquad game summaries and Schenn is nowhere to be found as far as points or PIMs. He's of course a shoe-in to make the team and you'd never judge a player heavily based on two intrasquad games, but wondering if they're going a little lighter on ice-time so that they can get as long of a look as possible at the players that are actually competing for spots...
First two summaries:

Other players of interest to WK fans...
