From the upcoming hockey nation of Germany, Christian Ehrhoff had a good career in the National Hockey League, where he broke in with the San Jose Sharks.  After a 42 Point season with San Jose in 2008/09, he was traded to the Vancouver Canucks, where, over two seasons, he posted his best NHL numbers, finishing seventh and tenth in Defensive Point Shares and placing ninth and eighth in Norris Trophy voting.  He would also have a 50 Point campaign in his last season with Vancouver (2010-11).  Ehrhoff finished his career with Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, and Chicago.

Brian Gionta was a good two-way player over his sixteen seasons in the National Hockey League, and everywhere he went, he was lauded for his leadership.  This includes his pre-NHL days where he was the captain of his Boston College team that would win the NCAA Championship.

From Czechoslovakia, Milan Micahelek had a decent hockey career where he had a pair of 60 Point Seasons, one with San Jose and another with Ottawa.  Michalak, who scored 446 Points over his career was an All Star in 2012 and he twice was a member of the Czech Republic’s Bronze Medal winning tea (012 & 2013).

As Bernard Herman, Ricki Starr was a solid amateur wrestler, but as Ricki Starr, he would take a pair of ballet slippers to incorporate a perceived feminine strut and would sell some tickets in the United States.  Starr would do well in Texas and the East Coast and would become a flamboyant babyface and an improbable one at that.  He would be a regional tag team champion on three occasions.
