Talking about Kadri on the other thread got me thinking. His father originally is from Lebanon I believe. But I remember a nice story about him talking about how much he fell in love with hockey once he came to Canada. Thus he instilled this love into his son from birth (Nazem Kadri). Of course Kadri was a Habs fan originally but you get the point. It's even a little heartwarming to hear a story like that.
Are there any others to share? I'm not thinking about even the European countries. Peter Stastny would be a good example, except he is in a traditional hockey country. I'm thinking more like a story of people from some non-traditional hockey countries that come to Canada and fall in love with the game.
