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 all about Hasek and his amazing goal tending... The guy was unbeatable.....

Kind of the same situation with the 1980 USA Team at Lake Placid Roman....

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

I´ve 4got to tell ya that Hamrlik comes from my town-his parents live 2 miles away from me. He was also one of the Nagano winners...
He became first Czech icehockey player being #1 in NHL draft in 199?, I´m not really sure about exact year...1992?
More about him here Montréal Canadiens - Team: Roman Hamrlik Official Player Page
As PBfoot said- playing for Montreal actually...
