Kevin Tkachuk is on the bench for the Super Cup Final
Glasgow's Kevin Tkachuk moves to the replacements bench as Canada prepare for the Super Cup Final match against Japan in Tokyo on Sunday.

True to his word that he wants to see new Canadian talent exposed to international play, Canada's National Coach Ric Suggitt makes seven changes in personnel, five positional changes, and introduces three new caps to Canada's line-up.

Kevin scored a try in Canada's semi-final victory over the USA on Wednesday. In last year's Super Powers Cup, Canada also played host Japan in the Final, losing 34-21. Since the two nations first played in 1932, Japan holds a 9-7 edge in wins over Canada, with Japan having won the last two outings 39-7 in 2001 and 34-21 last year.
