As the calendar pages slowly turn, competitive hockey returns in the form of the Canada/Russia Super Series, a set of 8 games, 4 in Russia and 4 in Canada, contested by some of the best young hockey talent both countries have to offer. Why does this matter to Caps fans? Well, a quick look at Canada’s roster shows that the Caps’ top two picks in the 2007 draft, Karl Alzner and Josh Godfrey, will be representing their native Canada while 2006 Caps draftee Simeon Varlamov will be patrolling the net for the Russian squad.
The series kicks off this morning at 9 am EST, and you can find broadcast information here.
