One of the hockey Olympic heroes from Nagano toyed with such an idea for a while. Former excellent goalkeeper Dominik Hašek considered whether to run for president of the Czech Republic in 2023, but in the end he rejected it, saying that in the future he did not rule out such a variant. And what about the other winners of the five-round tournament in 1998, Jaromír Jágr as head of state?

Earlier this week, the acting owner of the Knights of Kladno took part in the celebrations of the 70th anniversary of the founding of Avangrad Omsk, which he had played for in the past, in Moscow and spoke to Russian journalists on a number of topics.
The talk turned not only to his still active career, to memories of his engagement in Omsk or to Alexander Ovechkin, and his possibility of removing Wayne Gretzky from the historical table of NHL gunners.
Jagr flew to Moscow, he’s with Omsk again! I accepted the offer immediately, reports 68

Russian journalists also wondered if Jagr was considering becoming the new president of the Czech Republic. “Politics is not an easy task and you have to be prepared for hard work. Many people would like to know if I could take such a step, “admitted Jágr.
Six years ago, something unthinkable. But now Jágr turns around and changes his mind

But his answer was no. “Having responsibility for the whole country is the hardest job. You have to work from five in the morning until ten in the evening. It’s not easy, “says the legendary 68 and also commented on Hašek, who for some time considered whether to go to the battle for the Castle after Miloš Zeman in 2023.
“If I believe he will succeed one day? I don’t think that … Maybe one day … First he has to realize that this is a serious challenge, hard work, responsibility. So I don’t even know, “Jagr shrugged.
The dominator backed away, coming up with a fundamental statement

“It’s very easy to be president of anything for a day. But for four or five years? Good luck! I just want freedom, “he added.
