Getting a chance to represent your country in hockey is often described as a once in a lifetime opportunity, but two members of the Fort McMurray Oil Barons are getting a second chance just a couple of months after the first one.
The Oil Barons participated as the Canadian representative in the inaugural World Junior Club Cup in Omsk, Russia back in August.
Now defenceman Colton Parayko and centre Carson Cooper will get the chance to face international competition again in the World Junior A Challenge in Langley, B.C as members of the Canada West team made from players from the AJHL, BCHL and SJHL.
