This is very cool.  A Google Maps mash-up showing the birthplace of every player that's ever played in the NHL.  Although there is the expected broad swath through Canada, the northern US, Europe and Russia, I was surprised at how many countries and continents are actually represented.  (If you zoom in on the map, you'll only see how many people came from each community.  You ahve to drill down using the names of countries on the right side of the page to see the actual names for each location.)
