I will take charge of
Raoul Le Mats Swedish Vikings
In honour of the american movie director who brought hockey to sweden. Tho there were already some appreciated players in the austrian and swizz leagues. Le Mat came to sweden in 1919 to introduce this new game and already in 1920 he had assemblied the first swedish national team for the sport. Sweden played in the finals were they would lose to Canada by the score 12-1. Strange set-up during these games because sweden finished without a medal because they had a diffrent brackets for silver and bronze.
The winner of SHL/SEL is given the Le Mat trophy in honour of this man.

Dang, if busier-than-hell Hedberg could manage to join (as one of our greatest depth drafts GMs) then I guess I should knuckle down and find a way to join as well. (If I have to travel during the draft I'll simply find a veteran GM willing to be my wing man, when the time comes.)
