Well, Bozon should be on the Swiss team at the WJC, so we'll be watching 6 prospects.
And I couldn't agree more, WJC is the best Junior hokcey to watch for the tight competition and the number of excellent prospects participating in the tournament.
He played there in U15 and U17 categories for HC Lugano, Servette and Kloten, born in USA while his father was playing for St.Louis. He has dual passport (USA/FRA), but AFAIK he spent majority of his hockey development in Europe. Eliteprospect lists Adler Mannheim (DEL) as his youth team, so I assume he started there as pee-wee, because in that time his father played for Mannheim and he is some kind of legend there.
p.s. Bozon already suited up for France, at U18 level

Will France have WJC team, because I would love to see Bozon play in the tournament.

They play in Division 1 group A, that is one level below Elite group. I think France doesn't have shot for promotion, but Bozon himself should dominate tournament in terms of goals and assists. France is host of event between 9-15 December. If I find stream be sure I will post it on Montreal board.

Bozon said in a recent article to a MTL paper that he was most likely not going to play in it as it would mean he misses quite a few WHL games.
As for the WJC, only problem with following the WJC this year is that many games are either at 4 am or 7 am ET since it's in the heart of Russia...a few are at 9 am ET, 2 of them being USA games.

I thought I read somewhere he was thinking of not going since the competition would be lower than the WHL.

Pumped for tonights game. It will be my third time Galchenyuk live. The first was against Ottawa and he picked up 2 assists. The second was against Barrie where he picked up 2 goals and was easily the best player on the ice.
Hopefully the momentum carries over to tonight's game!

I'm in Ottawa for my masters! Looks like I'll be catching Gally when he comes by. Also, my gf is doing her masters in kingston and lives right next to arena.
