Ryan Vesce, I think, is playing in Russia, but no mention in the CNN article....does anyone know his team?

The only North American I was familiar with who was part of the team was their coach, Brad McCrimmon.  There were a few Eastern European players who also had played in the NHL who I had heard of.

No former NCAA players that I'm aware of.
