| Senior Member | Feb. 22,1998- the day Czech Republic won the Ice Hockey Tournament in Nagano Hello, 10 years ago a Czech National Icehockey theam won the Icehockey tournament in Nagano Olympic games. Here´s a short track form those days YouTube - Czech Hockey - Nagano 1998 Even today while watching it I still have goose pimples...don´t ya Pisis...? It was a great succes as all the experts favourited USA,Canada and Russia as it was for a first time in the history when NHL was shut-off during this tournament so the best players of this planet could be there...yep, and we won... Still hard to belive it.... My best sport experience 4ever!

| it was also the 60th anniversary of the RCAF Flyers winning the Olympic Gold medal for hockey and yes they were all airmen . They put in their own team since we weren't going to send one so thje RCAF stepped up to the plate. The combination of speed reaction and airforce |
