With only enough players to create one team, the Kenya Ice Lions had never played a game against an opponent. In a three-minute video sponsored by Tim Hortons' called "The Away Game", the Ice Lions make their way to Canada and are greeted by new custom jerseys and full sets of gear.



Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins and Nathan MacKinnon of the Colorado Avalanche surprised the team. Crosby said about the event:

One of the things I love about hockey is how it's able to reach so many people from so many countries around the world and bring them together.
