Really?  Black players in Hockey?  I haven't seen a single one.  Granted I
don't watch it all that much, only when the Wings are making a shot at the
cup, but I have NEVER, and I mean NEVER seen a black hockey player.  That
doesn't mean there aren't any black players in the NHL, but if there are
any, they are so few you don't see them on a regular basis.

Also, if you didn't notice, the only countries you named are ones that are
ethnically Caucasian. Plus Sweden, Poland, Russia, and anything else in
Northern Asia are all considered to be VERY close ethnically.

Hockey does indeed lack ethnic diversity as a sport.
