Next month an NHL exhibition series is to be played here in Australia (5 games in major cities). From what I understand the players participating are more the second tier than the stars of the sport - (Matt Kassian and Ian Coleare) for example.
I have very limited Ice hockey knowledge (Gretzky is the only name that sticks) and I love the physical contact of Rugby League

Will the quality of the games be high and will they play hard, Canada V USA rivalry? All opinions appreciated.
