	You should accept Russia, its not the Soviet Union anymore, same with Czechoslovakia nowadays its the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Just a heads up

	Lauro:	Mar 31st, 2010 at 06:04 GMT	8 points
	But the players were born in the Soviet Union or Czechoslovakia. The stats don´t show in which part.

	@Pepikx: Why? it's always called Nova Scotia

	jUNKIEd:	Mar 31st, 2010 at 14:57 GMT	4 points
	The UK? Really? Were they born then then moved to Canada as children? Also, Illinois? As a Wisconsin Badger I'm insulted that Illinois is on this list and we are not.

	I didn't see the word country because it wasn't capitalized like the others, and just assumed it was canada/USA :P

	jono the EXACT same thing happened to me. im sitting here and have gone through all the northern states and have now moved on and started putting in lower states... then all these countries pop up... reading comprehension > me

	BC should be accepted for British Columbia.

	The players were born under the name Soviet Union, not Russia. Because otherwise it may not be on this list, given the number of players born in places like Latvia or Kazakhstan, but at the time under the nation of the Soviet Union. Same goes for Czech Republic and Slovakia - they were born under the name Czechoslovakia, not the latter. Even on official team rosters, they go by their birth certificate, which shows the old country name. So don't change those.

	New Scotland??? SERIOUSLY?!?!? Hahahahaha. Why?

	WalterSobchak:	Mar 31st, 2010 at 22:24 GMT	5 points
	That Soviet Union/Russia thing may have to change soon, because we should soon be seeing a number of players born in the 1990s (i.e. today's 18 year old rookies would have been born after December 25, 1991)

	PublicEnemy:	Apr 1st, 2010 at 02:31 GMT	2 points
	damn I forgot it included other countries. I spent a couple mins guessing US states.

	YEEAA ONTARIO

	@Stawamus: I did some research and found out, that they were born in the Soviet Union or Czechoslovakia - not Russia or Cze/Slk!!!

	rivingbo:	Dec 23rd, 2010 at 04:27 GMT	4 points
	@jUNKIEd yeaaaaah most of the folks born in the UK (with the exception of owen nolen) were born in like the 1910s, 20s. and 30s

	pator:	Feb 11th, 2011 at 13:30 GMT	-1 points
	Good quiz, but you gotta accept Russia for Soviet Union.

	Poor Newfoundland, the only province missing out.

	FreakyFlyBry:	Jul 18th, 2011 at 02:07 GMT	3 points
	@OilFan: PEI also missed out. Got them all except for the UK (seriously, I don't think of it as a hockey country!)

	OilFan:	Jul 25th, 2011 at 01:41 GMT	2 points
	@FreakyFlyBry Wow, can't believe I didn't think of that. I am ashamed. Sorry, PEI-ers.
