For these rankings, I used three separate variables: Number of Players, Average TPE, and Total TPE. I then ranked each nationality in each of the aforementioned three statistics and assigned a weight to each (1x for Number of Players rank, 2x for Average TPE rank and 3x for Total TPE). The actual values themselves are hard to explain, so I'll just leave this link here so everybody can see the system I used. This data is as of November 22nd, 2019.

Coming in at 1st overall in these rankings is the United Kingdom; led by strong earners Joseph McWolf, Finn Davison, and Phil Marleau, the U.K. stands atop these rankings due to a strong blend of all three rating criteria. They only have five players below 200 TPE, and all of them are S68 draftees or later, so don't expect the U.K. to slide down in the rankings that much, if at all, next season.

I've been out of sim leagues for nearly 2 years, but before I left I remember that [real?] Latvians were becoming a force in the VHL and other leagues, so it's no surprise to me to see them ranked 2nd overall here. They're led by a trio of high-TPE earners, Kallis Kriketers, Randoms, and John Frostbeard; Their only visible weakness is a lack of youth, with only one draftee from later than S67, defenseman Aldis Auzins, who unfortunately declared for the S70 draft after these rankings were compiled.

You would be kidding yourself if you didn't think that Canada would at least be in the Top 3 of these rankings. Hockey is Canada's sport, and the numbers back that statement up too; of the 58 nations in these rankings, Canada has every nation beat in # of players (157) and Total TPE (40,522). The United States are relatively close behind the Canadians in enrollment with 146, but nobody is even in the same ballpark as Canada in terms of Total TPE, the U.S. is again the next closest at 33,600, but after that the numbers fall off a cliff; the United Kingdom is a distant 3rd with 6,516 TPE. The reason that despite the gargantuan lead they possess in the aforementioned two categories, the Canadians are 1st overall, is that the lack the high average TPE that the U.K. and Latvia have. For the many superstars Canada has, such as Brick Wahl, Jake Davis, Julian Borwinn, and Kronos Bailey, they also have the inverse, players like Vander Peng, Bilal Syed, and Jesse Sublime; players who amounted to nothing in their career, but still negatively affect Canada in these ratings.

The Irish grab the 4th overall spot in these rankings thanks to a handful of hard-working, albeit slightly less than superstar-level players, such as JB Rift, Konstantin Mulligan, Denver Wolfe, and Lando Baxter. Much like their neighbors to the east, the Irish are strong in average TPE, coming in 8th overall in that regard. Expect them to slip a bit in next years rankings due to the impending retirement of defensemen Konstantin Mulligan and Lando Baxter, but look for two young Irish defenders, Odin Omdahl (S70) and Kevin Reegsman (S69) to pick up the slack.

We're starting to see a bit of a pattern in these rankings; that pattern being that 3 having strong TPE earners are key to landing a high ranking. Finland's Big 3 are forwards Rauno Palo, Joel Ylonen, and Mikko Aaltonen; those three account for over 50% of Finland's Total TPE. Don't expect Finland to stay at this position in the rankings for long though, as they have a trove of young talent, such as Mikko Lahtinen, Griff Manzer, and Mikeal Cuddy, all of whom are S69 or younger.

Instead of having a big 3 like their Nordic neighbors the Finns, the Swedes have more of a Big 2.5; the Big Swedish 2.5 consists of wingers Pat Svoboda, Elias Dahlberg, and Henrik Zoiderberg, who compose nearly 45% of Sweden's Total TPE. Sweden's biggest weakness right now is a positional one, as they only have three current goalies, none of whom are above 120 TPE; they are all young though (S69/S70), so there is a chance this weakness turns into a strength soon.

Their lowest TPE players that will make an impact in the VHL are ~250 TPE, and only S68/S69 draftees. Also, absolutely LOVE the name Baka Lakalaka.

Vladimir Pavlov is solid, Dimitri Volosenkov, Valeri Morozov, and Viktor Kozlov are all decent role players, but after them Russia doesn't have much young star talent waiting in the wings. I expect them to drop a few spots at minimum in next season's rankings after Kovalchuk hangs up the skates.

They only have two players older than S68, Bjorn Scoringsonn and Kolur Bjoernsson, and those two are both solid players at the VHL level; the rest of the nation's roster is oozing with promising young talent. Wolf Stansson Jr, Sigard Gunnar, and Shush Nyko all project to be stars at the VHL level, and I would definitely expect to see Iceland crack the Top 10 of these rankings in the coming seasons.
