Hmm..it doesn't work that way. I bet if you took a poll the average players dream team to play for in the NHL would probably be a Canadian team. It's only natural given that we treat our players like gods around here. It just so happens that players get drafted and chosen by teams to play for them and there really is little choice on the players side on whom they play for.
I'm not trying to be an asshole, especially given that I'm new here, but I couldn't help but chime in here, because I am Canadian and it's unfortunately programmed into me to take every chance given to me to talk about hockey.
Sorry for the rant. :P
This is last years average for players and their nationality in the NHL. Also, keep in mind all the countries massive population differences.
As for the show, that was a great clip. Really makes me mad that I didn't show up. I didn't realize how late the taping/recording was. I actually could have made it.
And the pics are great, too.
