Vincent Riendeau in the Russian All-Star game?

Vincent Riendeau may become the first Canadian ever to take part in a Russian All-Star game according to fan voting held by one of the most authoritative Russian sports newspapers. In the Western voting, Russia team member Egor Podoamatsky (Torpedo Yaroslavl) is the undisputed leader with 175 points. Alexey Yegorov is in second place. The most interesting fight is for the third position with Vincent Riendeau (Lada Togliatti) 23 points and Viktor Chistov (Severstal Cherepovets) 22 points very close in the voting.
