TSN bows international all-star hockey tour

Fresh from the huge success of the World Junior Hockey Championships, TSN is airing the Primus Worldstars Tour from Jan. 12 to Feb. 2. The Worldstars tour featured a who's who of NHL talent (Toronto Maple Leafs' captain Mats Sundin and Ottawa Senators' captain Daniel Alfredsson were among the players) visiting eight teams and seven countries across Europe. The tour was originally broadcast last month (Dec. 9 to 23) on pay-per-view, but this will be the first time the tournament will be broadcast to cable subscribers. The games will air on Tuesdays and Wednesdays (two of the eight games are shown at 7:30 p.m. while the rest start at 8 p.m.), beginning this Wednesday.
