The Subway Super Series (formerly known as ADT Canada Russia Challenge ) was a six-game series featuring four teams: three from the Canadian Hockey League (CHL)—one team from each of the QMJHL, the OHL, and the WHL—versus Russia's national junior hockey team .
The 2009 series was held in six cities across Canada. The series began on November 16, 2009, and concluded on November 26, 2009. Both Western Hockey League games were held in British Columbia. Former Victoria Cougar goaltender and Hall of Famer , Grant Fuhr , was named Honorary Captain for the first game in the series, held in Victoria on November 25, 2009.[ 118] The next night, retired Kelowna fire chief, Gerry Zimmermann, was named Honorary Captain for the final game of the series.[ 119]
Results
In the first game of the two part series between Team WHL and Team Russia, Team WHL scored two goals en route to a 2–1 win in front of 6,695 fans at Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre in Victoria. Goaltender Igor Bobkov of Team Russia and forward Levko Koper of Team WHL were named Players of the Game for their respective teams.[ 120] The next night at Prospera Place in Kelowna, Team WHL defeated Team Russia 4–2 to end the series and give the CHL a 6–0 record. Goaltender Igor Bobkov was named Team Russia's Player of the Game for the second straight night, while Brandon McMillan was named Team WHL's Player of the Game.[ 121]
