Hockey Hall of Famer Dominik Hasek has called for the NHL to "immediately suspend contracts for all Russian players" amidst Russia's deadly invasion of Ukraine.

The 57-year-old Czech also had some choice words for Washington Capitals' Russian-born star Alex Ovechkin, a supporter of President Vladimir Putin.

Hasek, who played in the NHL for 16-seasons and is widely considered one of the best goaltenders of all time, called Ovechkin an "alibist," a "liar" and a "chicken shit" after Ovechkin failed to publicly denounce Putin and his country's aggression.

It's quite amazing to see how intensely Eastern Europe is standing up to the Russians. They clearly remember the Iron Curtain and are sick of it.
