Sven Hansen


 * "Is he a hockey player or a reincarnated Viking? Sven Hansen handles his hockey stick like it is a battle-axe and only pauses a game to have a quick drink. He is a heart of gold drowned in a lake of mead, a true fighter who honors the strength of his ancestors. The only things Sven loves more than Norway are his friends... and the way Amy looks at him."
