Written Option 1
This is an easy one for me, as besides the IIHF nation I am currently a part of there is only one that I have an affinity with and that is Finland. My last significant career in the SHL with Kaarlo Kekkonen saw me represent Finland in a great number of IIHF tournaments, enjoying a high level of success as part of a roster absolutely loaded with talent, culminating in two gold medals which I treasure to this day. Beyond just the success we achieved as a team on the ice, I look back fondly on being part of a great locker room with a number of really cool people who I still have a lot of time for to this day. Although I had a very brief stint as part of Norway with my last failed player, the only team outside of my current one I would really ever think of going back to would be Finland, and who knows, it definitely could happen when I decide to recreate and bring a new player into the league.
