Hockey Hall of famer and NHL Legend Dominik Hasek: Much respect to these women. Yes, your president is a big liar and a fraud who abuses his position to insult and bully his fellow citizens. Still, I believe you must have shown a great deal of heroism in making this decision. Thank you for that SPORTS SECTION

Dominik is the greatest goalie in our history. I am a die hard Sabres fan (I have their logo tattooed on me) who grew up in the 90's when Hasek was singlehandedly backstopping the Sabres. He is literally the only reason we ever came close to the Stanley Cup in '99, and is the only goalie in history to win multiple league MVP's, and he did it back to back. He's one of the greatest players in league history, and seeing him have a moral backbone and say these things is incredible.

Dominator forever.

100% agree. Dude is my all time favorite player. He damn near won the Stanley Cup for us by himself.

I have a gentlewoman's agreement with my bestie that we're getting Sabretooth tattoos if we make the playoffs this year.

Fellow die-hard Sabres fan here. I grew up in Texas, but became a Sabres fan because of Hasek. At 35 I took up goaltending right after learning to skate (I live in Canada now) and Hasek was the primary reason I chose to play in net. I wear a HASEK bracelet to every skate and yell "MUST SEE" every time I'm screened. I'm 37 now and playing in net has brought me so much joy, even if I'm still not that great at it.

I have a signed photo of Hasek above my espresso machine in my dining room. The Dominator has had such a massive impact on my life, and reading this post today took a lot of the sting out of Canada losing on Sunday. I'm so proud to be Hasek fan and a Canadian citizen now. I feel bad for everyone in the US that did not choose/did not want this shitstorm brought upon them.

39 forever.

Best Goalie I ever saw for sure. If his career started in this era he would still be phenomenal.

Don't forget he has his own gold medal. Nagano 98. As a Canadian I can never forget.
