Former goaltender Dominik Hasek<\/a><\/strong> played his last game in the National Hockey League back in 2007-08 with the Detroit Red Wings en route to his second Stanley Cup. Now, over a decade later, Hasek is looking for a new career he can dominate.<\/p>\n

Dominik Hasek Looking at Potential Presidential Campaign<\/h2>\n

Longtime Buffalo Sabres goaltender Dominik Hasek is looking for a new career. After Hasek retired, Hasek said he didn’t want to work in sports as most retired professional players do. He wanted to pursue something different. Politics weren’t something that Hasek had followed until after his retirement from professional hockey in 2011, where he retired from the KHL.<\/p>\n

In Lukas Vrablik<\/strong>‘s recent article for The Athletic, Hasek is quoted<\/a>: \u201cIt\u2019s hard not to express your opinion and feelings,\u201d Hasek said. \u201cI feel like a person whose opinions are interesting to people. When I can say them aloud, I consider it to be almost a duty, and not to keep it to myself. There are consequences, people who agree and those who don\u2019t. However, if you tell them what you believe, that\u2019s the best thing to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hasek’s Increasing Voice in Politics<\/h3>\n

Hasek has become extremely vocal in politics in the Czech Republic, actively criticizing the now Prime Minister Andrej Babis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
