Option 1

Well, Inge Baardsen is a proud Norwegian for sure, but the decision to switch could be made easier for him, by him being passed over his first 2 seasons in the league for Team Norden at the WJC. A third time this season, especially after a historically physical season, might see him end up elsewhere. Now where, that is an interesting question!
Obviously, the easiest thing to do would be to go to another Scandinavian nation, Denmark haven’t been great, historically, and no longer boast a team. Finland have always been a strong hockey nation, as have Sweden. Either of those would be a great shout and a good possibility for medals! However, one federation that is on the up happens to include Inge’s teammate and friend, Troy McClure IIII, that team is Czechia. Maybe he should move there and help this up and coming federation reach the potential it undoubtedly has?
