On 11 April 1994, HC Olomouc won the play-off final against Pardubice and became the first ever champion of the hockey extraliga. To celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of this unique event, the publication Olomouc Miracle after Thirty Years is published and the Telegraph is there! In addition to meeting the author, we have invited two of the architects of that success to the April TTalk. Defenceman Josef Řezníček has always had an impact on the hockey league, besides winning the first cup, he was the first in the league to break the 1,000-game mark, and after winning his second title in 2009 he retired from active hockey and took over as director of the competition for ten years. The second of our guests will be the excellent goalkeeper Pavel Cagaš. In addition to his 1994 victory, he is also the holder of the 1999 German Extraliga championship title and has also made four saves for the Czech national team. Years later, how do they remember those events, what is their view of contemporary Czech hockey and what are they doing now?
This and much more will be answered by TTalk! Moderated by Radim Kašpar (District Chamber of Commerce) and Robert Runták (TLGRPH), with musical accompaniment by our bandleader Tomáš Vyšinka and his guests. The TTalk debate series in cooperation with the District Chamber of Commerce invites interesting personalities from the world of business, culture and public life to the Telegraph.
