Greg7 said:On the radio Don Hay (Vancouver Giant's coach) said Repik is going to Chilliwack on Wednesday with the Czech's WJ team, so apparently he will be there after all (which makes sense, he should be).
Repik wont be making the trip to the camp, he is out with a shoulder injury
here is a copy of the article from the vancouver giants webpage

Vancouver Giants forward MICHAL REPIK (left) will not be heading off to Chilliwack this week for the Czech Republic National Junior Team Selection Camp.
Repik, who is the top scoring forward in the Western Hockey League, was named to participate in the selection camp for the Czech Republic Under 20 team. The camp will take place at Prospera Centre in Chilliwack, B.C. However, Repik has suffered a shoulder injury and will be sidelined for up to two weeks.
Repik, who doesn't turn 17 until December 31, is in contention for WHL Rookie of the Year honours. Through 32 games with the Giants, he is second in team scoring with 15 goals and 18 assists. He leads Vancouver in game winning goals (5) and is second in team power play goals (7).
There are 22 players from teams across the Canadian Hockey League taking part in the Czech Republic camp. In addition, there are three former WHLers who have returned to play pro hockey in the Czech Republic, including former Giants goaltender Marek Schwarz.
