Lithuania is not into winter sports at all. We view them as Southern Europeans.Im actually always been very surprised that Latvia is so much better than Lithuania and especially Estonia (basically same number of people...probably least for Latvia?) Well why can these southern finno-ugric not play like their northen cousins Finland????
Both Latvia and Estonia are good at winter sports, but Estonians just don't play hockey. They're good at skiing and stuff like that. No hockey traditions there.
Like 90% of the Estonian hockey team is comprised of Russians living in Estonia.
