Option 2:

As the Kelowna Knights prepare for Japan, Savva finds himself both nervous and excited. The idea of traveling to a country he has never visited has given him restless nights with his mind racing over thoughts of what awaits him. Japan is a land of both tradition and cutting-edge technology... all of which seems like a world away from where Savva grew up. He wonders what the streets of Tokyo will be like, or if the language barrier be too much? Will he find ways to communicate despite his limited grasp of Japanese? But the opportunity to represent the Kelowna on an international stage is too much to ignore, a chance to test his skill against players from across the globe. He imagines the thrill of stepping onto the ice in a foreign arena, the roar of the crowd in his ears as he skates. Will the competitors in Japan be as fierce as he thinks they will, or will their level of play fall short of expectation? Savva knows that the only way to find out is to face them head on, and embrace the upcoming challenge.
