Cynthia, now 29, is the wife of Maxime (Max) Talbot, a former NHL player with the Penguins, the Flyers, the Avalanche, and the Bruins - since they got together in 2012 they have had 12 moves and 3 children in a little over 5 years. He is now with the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl of the KHL, the second largest league in the world. Her children are about to begin a program at a Montessori school where the teacher speaks English.
The first person article about her life in Russia, and as a hockey wife (in French), from December 2017 is here: http://plus.lapresse.ca/screens/0065d00 ... C___0.html
Not mentioned in the article is the sad fact that on 7 September 2011 all players on the Lokomotiv team were killed when the plane in which they were travelling for their first match of the season crashed on take off from Yaroslavl airport. As tribute to the team, the city co-hosted the 2012 Canada–Russia Challenge with Halifax, Nova Scotia.
