Two-time Stanley Cup winner and Olympic hockey champion Dominik Hasek was a guest of the Ukrainian Volia Space house in Paris, saying that the NHL should suspend Russian hockey players from participating in the tournament.
Dominik Gaszek"The NHL should and can make a decision. And it's not just about Gary Bettman. There are 31 owners of NHL teams. I think these people are the most responsible. The 31 owners of the NHL. They can sit in their room, vote and make decisions. But they don't want to make decisions. And that's hard for me to understand.
I have a good relationship with the owner of the Buffalo Sabres, I have a very good relationship with the owners of the Detroit Red Wings, and both Ilitchi and Pegula have good teams. But I have said and am saying publicly that I do not agree with what you are doing. You have to take a clear position and not allow Russian players to participate in the NHL.
We are talking not only about Gary Bettman, the president of the NHL, but also about 31 owners of NHL clubs. These people have to make a decision. These people can make the world a better place. These people can save many human lives.
So, NHL owners, listen to me, listen carefully to what I'm saying. You have to save lives. If you do not allow Russian citizens, Russian players to step on the ice. Once again, I hope you read everything from my lips," the Bombardier telegram channel quoted Gashek as saying.
