Found this video/story to be very interesting...
16 year old Dane Dunlop (great name!) is making the trip over to Manitoba from New Zealand for a look from the Dauphin Kings. They refer to him as "aiming to become the first New Zealander to break into the "home of ice hockey"
He's been playing in the New Zealand Ice Hockey League. Have to wonder what level the competition is at, and how much of an adjustment he'd be looking at.

and then a writeup in the New Zealand Herald:

Interesting to see how they view hockey on that side of the pond..
