The Hockey Miracle in the Middle of Nowhere plot

In 2007, something happened in the National Hockey League that had never been seen before. For the first time in the league's 90-year history, a player from Denmark, a small country with no ice hockey tradition, stepped onto the ice. And it didn't stop there. In the following years, more Danish players unexpectedly broke through. And they all came from the same place: Herning, a city of just 50,000 in the middle of nowhere. In just nine years, Herning sensationally produced five NHL players. During the same period, Chicago produced three and Detroit four. This is the story of how little Herning became against all logic in a hotbed of NHL players.
