Episode Synopsis "February 1998: Hasek’s Golden Run in Nagano"

The Denver Broncos, Dawson’s Creek, and Usher were all making headlines in the winter of 1998. But the best goaltender in the world was about to become a national hero in the Czech Republic.  Join us on a ride back to February 1998, where, in Nagano, Japan, Dominik Hasek stared down the three top ice hockey nations and unflinchingly led his nation to victory.   What were the takes at the time? What have we learned since? How does all this apply today? Jump aboard for a nostalgic ride to the past and a curious look at what might come next.  In this episode, Ian and Andrew ponder... just how dominant “The Dominator” was in Nagano if the panic over Canada’s loss was justified whether the story would have ended differently if Russia had all hands on deck In the final segment the guys challenge each other to Hasek-era trivia. Can you do better than they did? Thanks for listening to the show! We always love to hear from you and find out what you were up to in 1998.
