Pertaining to hockey, I had no idea about Wayne Gretzky having a Ukranian background. I knew he was born in Ontario, Canada but didn't know his Grandfather was Ukranian and his fathers first languange was Ukranian. The other two NHL players that were mentioned are also very good players. Zherdev is a very good up and coming player for the Columbus Blue Jackets and Zhitnik is a long time NHL player and a numerous time NHL all-star.<BR/><BR/>Great post, very interestingMyles Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00756810679702471633noreply@blogger.com
