Just thought I'd point out that there was another great Croatian participating at the 2002 Olympics; that's Joe Sakic playing for Team Canada in the Olympic Ice Hockey tournament. What a year Joe has had, personally winning the 2001 Hart, Lady Byng and Lester Patrick trophies, and topping it off with the Stanley Cup with his Colorado Avalanche team, and now an Olympic gold medal and a tournament MVP honour. He also scored the game-winning goal in the gold medal game! He is the all-time franchise leader for the Colorado Avalanche in goals, assists and points; and has been an NHL All-Star 9 times! Not to mention that he is one of the nicest professional athletes anywhere, and one that he is both aware and proud of his Croatian origin.
