Two-time Olympic champion Alexander Kozhevnikov said that former goalkeeper of the Czech national hockey team Dominik Hasek needs the help of psychiatrists. He shared his opinion with him RIA News.
“This is a diagnosis; There is something wrong with the person’s mind. All that remains is to get treatment; These are questions psychiatrists wonder about. Maybe they don’t have it in the Czech Republic and can’t help it in the USA or Canada. He also turned out to be a coward. First he attacks with his tongue, then he apologizes. It’s a disease, what can I say? For a long time, normal people did not pay attention to his statements. The man is delusional,” said Kozhevnikov.
Hasek apologized for his appearance in the opening game of the National Hockey League (NHL) regular season between the Buffalo Sabers and Chicago Blackhawks on January 18 (3-0). He described the incident as a big mistake.
After the start of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine, Hasek repeatedly spoke out against the performance of Russian players in the NHL.
Hasek addressed Russian hockey players and officials on January 9. The former athlete said that due to the events in Ukraine, no athlete from Russia will be able to participate in international competitions.
These words were in response to the statements of Boris Mikhailov and Vladislav Tretyak about the low level of the 2024 World Junior Championship without the Russian team.
