Dominik Hasek is a two time Stanley Cup Champion, and Olympic Gold Medalist who is considered amongst the best goaltenders in the history of hockey. He played for 16 seasons with four different NHL teams and won the Vezina Trophy as the NHL's most outstanding goalie 6 times. He is also the only goaltender to win the Hart Trophy as the NHL's most valuable player twice. Hašek was the first European Goaltender to win the Stanley Cup, setting an NHL play-off record for shutouts in the process and is credited for opening the door for future European goaltenders who are now a strong force across the NHL. In 1998 in Nagano, Japan, he led Czech Republic to their first and only Olympic Gold medal, famously shutting out Canada in a tie-breaking shootout & eliminating the Canadian “dream team” along the way. Hašek holds the NHL record for the best career save percentage (.922) and was inducted into the Hockey hall of Fame in 2017 and has been named one of top 100 Players in NHL history.
