The Varkaus Eagles officially started their second season today when twenty one players from North America arrived in Helsinki Airport. "It is a long day for everyone, most players will be traveling 10-18 hours to just arrive here in Finland," said Keith McAdams, General Manager. " Then we have another 4-5 hours to Varkaus and the players then need to move into their apartments."
The players started school September 3, 2008. The players had a busy first two days meeting the media and adjusting to their new home in Varkaus Finland. The Eagles attended school orientation and were met by the media at Savonia University. All the players attend school full time while playing Hockey in Finland.
The Eagles will practice 9:00 am Monday through Saturday at the Vakaus Ice Hall.
