[Ralph Baer]

Alex Rodriquez will be playing in Russia in a couple of days and Jacob Hayhurst also starts to play next week, so it is as good a time as any to start this thread.

Sioux City will have an exhibition game tomorrow 8/18 prior to the JCWC starting on 8/22. http://mhl.khl.ru/news/index.php?ELEMENT_ID=340057. They apparently didn't post an English translation, but Google translate is understandable.

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2014-15

My name is SIOUX (how do you do)....... The first practice on Russian soil went well ... also supplying a good laugh. Several weeks ago we worked with the team, our sponsors Tyson Foods, CCM Hockey and others to utilize sublimation technology in the design of our jerseys. The idea was to showcase a "European" look while acknowledging sponsors and promoting Iowa's global agricultural prowess. We also thought translating the Sioux City Musketeers name into Russian using Cyrillic lettering would bode well with the host country and media. That was the plan and we thought they came out great. A little loud, but unique and fun. The players love them. The front, we were told in the States, translated to "the Musketeers of the Sioux". Well, we were informed by actual Russians that there is no translation for "Sioux" in Russian, so they in fact translate to "Musketeers of Sue". We haven't told the boys quite yet but after watching them practice I doubt we'll be confused with a girl's hockey team at the World Cup. We grin and go for Gold instead.... https://m.facebook.com/story.php?sto...&id=1447450355

I was trying to figure out what the Cyrillic on the jerseys reads. The first word Мушкетёры seems to be Musketeers. I thought that the second Сью was a transliteration of Sioux which would be the same as Sue.

Edit: Not important really.

European look? As in a bazillion ads with just a very small area to give the team name and the number?
