NY Rangers are facing European Champions Magnitogorsk in Bern tonight at 19.30 CET (6.30pm BST). This is the first competition of the Victoria Cup that from next season onward will see the NHL Stanley Cup Champions battling vs the winner of the new Champions Hockey League. For the first edition the NY Rangers have been chosen, even if they are not Stanley Cup champions because they were the first team to play an European one.

I'm now leaving for Bern to watch tonight's Victoria Cup. I'll post a link to the match report tomorrow.
