Question

Any website with the info is much appreciated.

Answer 1

that's a really good question..i've always wondered that too, im sure mostly everyone is a canadian. but you can try googling it.

Answer 2

more canadians than all the rest put together.dont know percentage.

Answer 3

Got this tidbit from Wikipedia:

Currently the NHL has players from 18 different countries, with the majority (52.0 percent during the 2007–08 NHL season) coming from Canada.

Since i'm doing the cut and paste thing, a little more fluff for you:

Hockey has the smallest total fan base of the four leagues, the smallest revenue from television, and the least sponsorship. In contrast, hockey is the most popular of these four major sports in Canada. The NHL fan base is also the most affluent and well educated of the four.

Wiki's words, not mine.

Answer 5

Not sure on a website but about 134 Canadians were drafted this year and second was the U.S. with about 60 or so (It may even be much less than that as I can't quite recall the numbers!). All the other countries combined don't match what the Canadians have out there!!

CANADA RULES!!!
