"Game Time" PROSPECT SUNDAY: TRENDING UP, Dec. 21, 2014

Very little action in the system this week, as everyone is getting ready for their Christmas break, and three of the Blues' top prospects -- Ivan Barbashev, Robbie Fabbri and Ville Husso -- prepare to represent their countries (Russia, Canada and Finland, respectively) at the U20 World Junior Championships starting in Montreal on Boxing Day. Here's your "Fab Five" for the week in the Blues' prospect stable.
