The former Spartak goalkeeper will not calm down. Last weekend, a Czech who imagined himself as Napoleon, who was sorely missed by the Sixth Room, broke all obscurantism records.
Here’s what he tweeted about Russia’s record-breaking representation in the 2023 NHL All-Star Game:
– Hockey vacation? No! The most disgusting announcement of the military conflict in Ukraine! With ten Russian hockey players at the stellar weekend of the NHL. Does our press understand that this headline promotes Russian special operation propaganda? This should be over in a few days!
The dominator was not mistaken: in addition to the nine originally invited Russians, the NHL called up Alexander Barkov in place of the injured American Matthews. The captain from Florida, according to media reports, has dual citizenship: Finland and Russia. And the main surprise of the master show was the appearance on the ice of four-year-old Sergei Ovechkin. Along with his father and Crosby, Ovie-junior made the most beautiful shooting. Thus, at least ten Russians on the ice of the Florida sand were definitely marked.
Regarding this unusual free kick for three Haseks, he also spoke on the social network:
– The NHL hit rock bottom by allowing Ovechkin’s son to play in the All-Star Game. Gary Bettman must pay for this heinous act!
Well, then Czech TV got it for the live broadcast of the fight between Fedor Emelianenko and American Ryan Bader:
– NHL broadcasts with Russian citizens are not only disgusting, but also an announcement of a military operation. However, the Nova Sport channel raised the bar even higher by showing the Emelianenko fight. Legislation is necessary in the Czech Republic to better protect ourselves and our allies.
The NHL commissioner responded immediately, as the Finnish reporter asked the pertinent question at a post-All-Star Weekend press conference:
– Dominik Hasek has been an active critic for the last year. He is entitled to his opinion. But I don’t think he reflects the position of the Czech people or the leadership of the country. By the way, I don’t agree with him.
Well done Gary! You did not disappoint again. Everyone remembers that in October last year in Prague, in two NHL championship games Nashville – San Jose, no one said a bad word about Trenin and Svechnikov, who came to the capital of the Czech Republic. Moreover, it never occurred to anyone to organize provocations. good atmosphere. Both games went smoothly. Everyone was satisfied: fans, businessmen and hockey players. Except for one talkative character.
On Saturday, in response to a call for a change in legislation, the mad dove of peace flew from the National Olympic Committee of his home country:
– For us, there can be no talk of a boycott of the Olympics, because we don’t want to punish Czech athletes. We apologize for boycotting the Los Angeles Games in 1984 and we do not want to repeat the sad experience of the communist era.
In Germany, this topic is not discussed at all:
– It is not in dispute whether the German athletes will boycott the Olympic Games. In recent days, the United States has made it clear that it is not going to interfere in any way with the International Olympic Committee in the return of the Russians to the Games, the press service of the German Olympic Sports Confederation said.
Even the previously irreconcilable Estonia suddenly came to its senses. The head of the country’s Olympic Committee, Urmas Syyrumaa, assured that his country would not boycott the Paris Olympics if Russian and Belarusian athletes were admitted: “Boycotts have never led to anything.”
Surrendered, according to the Daily Mail, and the UK. The English tabloid reported that the UK is unlikely to boycott the 2024 Olympics in Paris if Russians and Belarusians are admitted. Furthermore, such a decision will be made despite numerous criticisms of the IOC’s position, including from British Culture Minister Michelle Dounlan. It is also reported that this decision is unlikely to be affected by the British government’s attempts to organize a world summit to discuss plans to block the admission of Russian athletes. Earlier, information appeared that a meeting of sports ministers from EU countries, Great Britain, Australia, Canada, South Korea and Japan would be held on February 10 to form a common position.
Well, Pan Hasek, did you buy it? How can you not understand, eccentric, that without the Russians and our native bulbashes, the NHL and the IOC, with their Olympic Games and main North American sponsors, will lose millions, if not billions! – Dollars. This is capitalism. There are no fools who shoot themselves in the limbs. As the USA, which rules the Olympic ball, will say, so be it!
If you don’t believe me, ask Bettman again.
Oh, and check out the million-dollar photo of the Atlantic Division team winning the NHL division mini-tournament on one stellar weekend. From the Czech Republic, only Boston goalscorer David Pastrnak was called up to Florida. Well, with whom is he standing next to the memorable image? That’s right – in a hug with Nikita Kucherov and Andrey Vasilevsky!
There are still forces and arguments to argue with Bettman, on whose side are the sympathies of the Czech people and hockey players in particular?
