Since the formation of the National Hockey League in 1917, through the 2005-2006 season,
over 4300 Canadian-born hockey players have played perhaps the most exhilarating and steadfast game in the world. This
map is meant to identify the birthplaces of these players and the number born in the numerous locations throughout Canada. These
statistics cover the 1917-1918 through the 2005-2006 seasons.
Statistics do not just cover the location of birthplace however; but as well provide graphs that separate provincially where these player's are born. These statistics are further broken down to percentage of forwards, goaltenders and defenseman that come from each respective province and territory on a number basis and a per capita basis. Number of players from each province and territory, who are Stanley Cup Champions, are also displayed on a numbers and per capita basis. From an international standpoint, other statistics displayed within the map include those which display the National Hockey League's percentage of foreign players versus those born in Canada.
