Not sure if anyone saw this article posted on ESPN (Insider required) talks about the USA WJC summer camp two tidbits on Flames prospects:

Patrick Sieloff, D, Calgary Flames (Windsor-OHL)
Sieloff, Calgary's second-round pick, didn't blow away the competition at this event but was consistently steady, and the improvements in his game are notable. "I think his game is really evolved from last year to this year," Lucia said. "Last year, he was Mr. Rough and Tough. He still has that element to his game, but I think his puck skills are much improved." Sieloff echoed the idea that he needed to address that area of his game: "I needed to work on my puck skills and having a second more with the puck to make the right plays." Sieloff came into the USNTDP as a mobile, tough player, but he's continued to progress really well. He's gotten quicker and stronger while making better plays with the puck. Plus, he defends well.

Jon Gillies, G, Flames -- Gillies didn't play much in the camp, but in his full game versus Canada he was simply sensational, putting on the best goaltending performance of the entire camp. He makes great reads and has top-end athletic tools.

Some nice things said... again this was more of a puff piece though.
