Some of the top prospects of the Dallas Stars were on the ice over the past week, taking part in the World Junior Summer Showcase in Plymouth, Michigan.
Players from the USA, Canada, Sweden, and Finland were at the camp, which begins the process of selecting rosters for the 2018 World Junior Championship in Buffalo, New York.
Dallas prospects Jake Oettinger (USA), Riley Tufte (USA), Jason Robertson (USA), and Fredrik Karlstrom (Sweden) were among the top under-20 players taking part.
It is the summer, so you shouldn't read too much into the camp, but it was still an opportunity to see how players stacked up against other players from their own age group.

Here's a look at how the Dallas prospects fared at the World Junior Summer Showcase.
Fredrik Karlstrom, center (3rd round/2016):Karlstrom had a strong showing in Plymouth, leading Sweden in scoring with six points (two goals, four assists) in five games. He skated well, showed a knack for coming up with pucks and making plays. He played all three forward positions, was a regular on the power play and displayed a strong two-way game.
"He is kind of interesting. I was talking to Tomas Monten, the Swedish coach, and he had some high praise for Karlstrom.**
