Canada invites Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to camp
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins - C - Edmonton Oilers
Dec. 3, 2012 - 2:25 PM ET

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins has expressed a desire to play for Canada at the 2013 World Junior Championship and he'll get every opportunity to make the team's roster if he gets the go-ahead from Edmonton's brass.

He is set to undergo testing Monday to examine his shoulder after he separated it last season. Nugent-Hopkins, who has been playing in the AHL with Oklahoma City, should get permission to attend Canada's selection camp once he receives the green light after he was invited by Hockey Canada on Monday.
