  • Rumun Ndur is a Nigerian-born Canadian professional ice hockey player. He has played in the NHL for the Buffalo Sabres, the New York Rangers and the Atlanta Thrashers. Ndur is also the first Nigerian-born player ever to play in the NHL. He was born in Nigeria but grew up in Sarnia, Ontario and St. Thomas, Ontario. He was drafted by the Sabres in 1994 in the third round, 69th pick overall. In 1996 he won a Calder Cup with the Rochester Americans. He made his debut in the NHL in 1996–97 with the Sabres. In 1998–99 he was traded to the New York Rangers and just a year later he was traded to Atlanta and played 27 games with them during the 1999–00 NHL season. Since that season he has played in the minors. He has played a total of 69 games in NHL. He scored 5 points (2 goals + 3 assists) with 137 penalty minutes. Rumun captured the imagination of a section of the Coventry Blaze fanbase and had a small fan club of his own that travels to the majority of home games from the town of Banbury. However he played just two games of the 2007–08 season before suffering from a neck injury, ruling him out for the season. In May 2008, Ndur was released by Coventry. Ndur went on to sign for the Nottingham Panthers.

  • Nato in Nigeria, ma cresciuto in Canada, è stato il primo giocatore nigeriano a calcare il ghiaccio della NHL. È un difensore di stecca sinistra. Ndur fu draftato dai Buffalo Sabres nel 1994 come terza scelta (69° assoluto), quando giocava per i Guelph Storm in OHL. Fece il suo esordio in NHL coi Sabres due anni più tardi. In tre anni raccolse solo 11 presenze, per il resto giocò in farm team AHL (Rochester American, con cui vinse la Calder Cup 1995-96, e Hartford Wolf Pack). Durante la stagione 1998-99 passò ai New York Rangers con cui raccolse 31 presenze. Le sue ultime presenze in NHL risalgono alla stagione successiva, con gli Atlanta Trashers. Chise la sua esperienza nel massimo campionato al mondo con 69 presenze e 5 punti (2 gol e 3 assist). Nelle due stagioni successive si divise fra IHL (Orlando Solar Bears) e AHL (Norfolk Admirals), prima di passare in Europa. Per la stagione 2002-03 firmò con il Graz 99ers, nel massimo campionato austriaco. Tornò in Nord America dopo una sola stagione. Nel 2003 vestì la maglia dei Columbus Cottonmouths (ECHL), nel 2004 quella dei Danbury Trashers (UHL) e nel 2005 quella dei Kalamazoo Wings (UHL). Per la stagione 2006-07 si è accasato invece nuovamente in Europa, in Gran Bretagna ai Coventry Blaze con cui è stato eliminato in semifinale dai play-off campionato, ma con cui si è aggiudicato la Challenge Cup. È stato confermato per la stagione successiva.
