Jagr wow... he's just an unique player. Nobody has come close to dominating the game one-on-one both technically and physically the way he did.

I am Canadian and i was 15yr old and this game was very intense. We knew the Czechs were a powerhouse and we knew Canada had a slight chance. This was one of the greatest times in Hockey ever.

@@tomasmrazek8506 Yeah they were.... 1998 Olympics= best players from every country (NHL players actually playing there!) You cant compare championships to olympics. Most of those championships were played without NHL superstars. Also you shouldnt say 1995-2000! You should count 1993-1998. Why? Because those 2 championships we won were after Nagano not before. The fact is the we were outsiders in Nagano. Canada, USA, Russia, Finland, Sweden were supposed to be Top 5 teams there. We were supposed to fight for 6th place. Yeah we had Hasek and Jagr (one of the best players in the world), but those 5 teams had one of the best players too and they added Nhl stars. We added mostly extraliga players.

@@theold4734 The best two players in the world in 1998 were both Czech. To think that Finland had a better chance is a joke. Also every single WC had top NHL players. Sure it wasn't an all star full stack but it these were no amateurs. In those years Czechs won almost every WC and neither of them had Hasek nor Jagr in it. So even without the best two players in the world Czechs were winning almost every tournament.

Dominik Hasek’s performance in this game remains the greatest performance I’ve seen from a hockey goaltender. And Patrick Roy’s performance was nearly as great.

heartbreaker? Couldn't disagree more. One of the happiest days of my life, as a Czech living in Japan I was in Nagano to see the quarter finals, semi finals and finals live. Should have won it in regulation, the Czechs were the better team and Canada was very lucky to tie it a minute from time. But the better team then won anyway.

sorry, it wasn't "lucky" at all, and the better team did not win. the team that Hasek happened to play on, won. because without him Czech would have been lucky even with a bronze.

Imagine having the greatest hockey player on your bench and you leave him there. Crawford's a clown.
