Commissioner of the National Hockey League Gary Bettman spoke about the words of the Czech ex-goalkeeper Dominik Hasekwho criticized the participation of the Russians in the NHL All-Star Game.
“Dominik Hasek has been an active critic for the past year. He has the right to his opinion, but I do not think that it reflects the position of the Czech people or the leadership of the country. By the way, I do not agree with him, ”Ilta-Sanomat quotes Bettman.
Nine Russians took part in the NHL stellar weekend, which became a national record. Earlier, Gashek called the participation of Russian hockey players in the NHL All-Star Game “a disgusting advertisement for a special operation” (the wording has been changed in accordance with the official position of the Russian Federation).
