I assume this is current rosters?
What tools did you use? Do you have a GitHub link? Interested mostly in how you scraped the roster data. I’d like to do a similar project for swim.
Also would like view that takes into consideration population density e.g. instead of counts per location, where is it over indexing. What’s an outlier for hockey players.
Seems like places with NHL franchises tend to produce more hockey players. Or is it that they have NHL franchises because hockey was already popular there? Or is this just a map of where the cities are?

Minnesota and Ontario. Yea, that checks out.
