Nikita Korostelev and two other Leafs prospects added to World Junior tuneup rosters

Russia Hockey announced their rosters for the Four Nations U20 tournament in Sweden and the CIBC CHL Canada-Russia Series in Canada. Three Leafs prospects have made the initial cut, including one of them for both tournaments.

The Four Nations Cup is being held in Gothenburg, Sweden this year from Nov. 4-6. The Russian team is drawn mostly from the Russian junior league (MHL) and the KHL. Making the early 28-player preliminary list are Leafs draft picks Vladimir Bobylyov of Dynamo Spartak of the KHL and Nikolai Chebykin of HC MVD of the MHL (currently on load to the VHL team Dynamo Balashikha).
