Canada Leans Left, At Least on Ice

A fun piece from the New York Times today looks at the interesting split between right-handed and left-handed shooters in hockey.

Canadians, it seems, tend to shoot left-handed with a split of as much as 70 to 30 percent. About 60 percent of American hockey players shoot right-handed, however, and this all comes despite the fact that there is little difference (outside of the world of hockey) between the percentage of people who are right- and left-handed in the two nations.

It’s a good read. Check it out here.
