Vancouver Giants team captain Milan Lucic will also wear the 'C' for Canada at the upcoming Super Series against Russia. The move may not be a surprise to Giants fans or teammates, but with a lack of international experience it will be somewhat surprising to outsiders.

Being named 'Captain Canada' continues Lucic's amazing year. In May he was named Memorial Cup MVP after leading the Giants to their first championship. After the eight game series is over Lucic will travel to Boston to complete his first full Boston Bruins training camp.
