Detroit Red Wings, Czech Ice Hockey Association, Dominik Hasek, Jiri Slegr, Jaromir Jagr, Triple Gold Club, Olympic gold medal, Stanley Cup.

“I have the impression that support for my vision and direction of Czech hockey finds a positive response, across the hockey movement, Slegr said. “I felt that I had a taste for this job,” Hasek said. Along with his hockey background as a player, coach and administrator, Slegr also spent a brief stint in Czech politics. However, that’s not who Czech hockey icon Jaromir Jagr is backing to be the next leader of his country’s hockey association. In fact, it was the Rytři Kladno Czech extra-league club owned by Jagr that put forth Slegr’s nomination for the position. He’d win a second Cup with the Red Wings in 2007-08.
