Canadiens Heading to the Worlds

Now that the Stanley Cup is out of our reach this season, some Montreal Canadiens have decided to take a different route to victory by participating in the IIHF World Hockey Championships.

Six Canadiens in total will be playing for their countries which include Saku Koivu for Finland, Andrei Markov for Russia, Tomas Plekanec for Czech Republic, and Andrei Kostitsyn, Sergei Kostitsyn, and Mikhail Grabovski for Belarus.

In his first game with Belarus, Andrei Kostitsyn racked up a solid 12 penalty minutes, as he served a misconduct with four minutes left to play in the third, while Sergei Kostitsyn joined him there soon after, as Belarus got caught with too many men on the ice.
