The league is finally going international. Escaping the grand lands known as Canada and the USA, the Simulation Hockey League is taking it's talents abroad. With way too many amazing destinations to chose from, they let the fans have a go at it online on their league homepage. Of course, the media covered it largely, word got out and an amazing amount of people sent in votes. Of all the cities and countries that were listed the following three rounds out the final 3 (remember, with only 2 being chosen). Bora Bora - FP, Tokyo - Japan and Moscow - Russia. With the huge turn out, they then gathered those final 3 and put them in a new poll with the final results of:

Moscow: 41%
Tokyo: 26%
Bora Bora: 33%

With Moscow and Bora Bora moving on, it was slightly expected moving into the final 3. A warm destination, with beautiful waters and the warmth of the sun melting your skin. What could be better? Vacation seekers, those with cash on hand and anyone else are able to attend. They'll be building a specialized arena for hockey, with an outdoor resort off the ocean side. expect it to be a big vacation destination sight for sometime to come with maybe a few more exhibition games here - you never know. For the teams, we got the Winnipeg Jets facing off against the New England WolfPack. Let's see what they can do!

For Moscow, it's obvious. It's one of the biggest hockey nations in the world - a large contributor to all the skill with have in so many leagues and a producer of some legendary hockey players in a majority of leagues. Outside of that, it's also fuelled by one of the world largest hockey leagues, the KHL. Russians love their hockey almost as much as they love Putin, who is second to Vodka. You bet your ass if you put a game here, you're going to be having some different formats than the original game over in Bora Bora. Here, we got some of the SHL's best, voted by the fans truly, against some of the KHL's best. Call it an All-Star team VS All-Star team to showcase talent in both leagues.

Way over word limit, done for the day, folks.
