As some might know already, Jay Cue is from Portugal, a country that i am sure not a lot of you have seen in sim leagues before. And we are one the countries where the populations drinks a lot of wine per capita. We do love our wine.

I'm from Latvia. As you all probably know, we absolutely love hockey here - especially international matches. In fact, we've actually got a tradition where after every Latvian NT win we go to the losing country's embassy and leave flowers at their doorstep.

I'm from Sweden. Our colors are blue and gold. Something about three crowns, I am not actually Swedish so I can't really elaborate further. King Carl, or something. Hooray!

Duncan Mackenzie is from Canada, eh! Canada has the fourth smallest population density in the world and has been at "war" with Denmark for Hans Island since the 1930's. This particularly viscous conflict sees each nation travel to the island, located in the CANADIAN ARCTIC, and replace the flag of the previous visitors and leave a bottle of whisky for the next group. This tradition of battle was started by Canada in 1984 and carried on the same year by a Danish contingent who visited afterwards and found the flag and bottle.

While Melvin is originally American, he claims Sweden as his hockey ancestral home. The biggest reason for this is the annual moose migration that takes place every single year. After a hard winter, the moose must find their way across the river. Sweden views this as very important and sets up numerous cameras to film all of the moose who go on these adventures. While Melvin tries to stay away from the paparazzi, they clearly just follow him everywhere.

I live in Las Vegas, Nevada. As a young adult, it is awesome to have so many things to do. The only downside is obviously the summer heat. The high this past weekend was 117.

Hello, I am Petr and I am angy- I mean Czech. As for a useful fact, all you need to know is that we will win gold. Oh and Czechia is Bestia.

I live on the west coast in Canada, and it rains a lot here yet it was scorching hot a while ago. The scenery here is really nice and beautiful, and the wildlife and nature is quite natural and refreshing.

Hans hails from southern Germany, more specifically from the town of Füssen, in Bavaria. An interesting fun fact is that there are over 2100 castles in the country!

Grogu hails from the great land of Norway. An interesting fact about Norway is that they have a lot of reindeer and it is really good to eat. This is why Santa doesn't deliver toys to children in Norway since the fiasco of the Donner expedition.

Ahlo Kysoka reigns from Norway, which has a very successful developmental and international reputation among the SHL. Fun fact, the largest road tunnel is in norway; it is about 15 miles long!

Being a basic Adelie penguin, Adelie de Pengu hails from the icy south of the Antarctic. While many penguin species are in the local neighborhood, many more live off the coasts of Africa, Australia, and South America. All penguins live south of the equator, which isn't something many people are aware of!

I am from the United States, but my player is from Latvia (don't question it). A useless fact about the United States is that we are home to the hotdog eating contest. I still don't understand why it exists but it does. Joey Chestnut (who is from California in the US) holds the world record for most hot dogs eaten in 10 minutes, which is 76 hotdogs. Disgusting. Chestnut also holds the record for most championships in one event with 14.
