Former Montreal Canadiens players, Guy Carbonneau and Guy Lafleur were named Honorary Captains for the first two games of the series, which was held in Drummondville on November 16, 2009, and Shawinigan on November 18, 2009.[1]

All six games were televised nationwide on Rogers Sportsnet, which broadcast both games from the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
