PHOTO: Zdeno Chara with 4-foot-10 Canadian figure skater
Zdeno Chara has arrived in Sochi to carry the Slovakian flag at the Olympic Opening Ceremony, and Canadian figure skate Kirsten Moore-Towers took an opportunity to get her photo taken with the towering Boston Bruins defenseman.
Ran into Zdeno Chara today. Couldn't resist taking a picture :) pic.twitter.com/sYNOIbrWLn

Moore-Towers, who will compete in the pairs event, is listed at 4-foot-10, while Chara comes in at 6-foot-9.
Perhaps this is an early look at a future Battle of the Blades pairing.
