Pretty sure Canada and US players combined make up about ~70% of active NHL players, with Canada making up about 41% and the US roughly about 28%. Sweden looks to be in the number three spot with about 9%.

All good. I knew Canada made up a significant chunk of active players and dwarfed everyone else, and assumed US was a good percentage in the mix too. But didn't realize how extreme the numbers would be in Canadian and US favor.
This is where I got my info, as well as a few other websites to verify the numbers a it. https://www.quanthockey.com/nhl/nationality-totals/active-nhl-players-career-stats.html
