HC Pilsen lost the semi-finals series of the Czech Extraleague yesterday. The team's old, old owner/manager/player:

Still one of my favorite players. Hard work and hussle in that guy's game.

I can't remember who did it but there was a fast forward montage that they did of Straka back in the day and it was genius. I forget what the music was that it was set to, but I remember laughing the whole way through. When he was in his prime he played the game at warp speed the whole time.

I can't think of Straka without also thinking of Kovalev and Lang. The same goes for the other two.

The best 5 forward power play.

My first reaction was, "hey, the guy looks just like Martin Straka"...

Yeah, also one of my favorite players.

Always liked Marty.

by **penny lane** on Wed Apr 04, 2012 8:26 pm

That is an Incredibly sad expression! I can't believe that's him.

by **npv708** on Wed Apr 04, 2012 8:34 pm

He's not sad his team came in 3rd, he's sad because he was told he has to go lift weights because of the loss.

by **Gaucho** on Wed Apr 04, 2012 8:36 pm

He looks dejected. I don't like Marty Straka looking dejected.

Marty's biopic will star Dave Coulier.

Thanks Tomas. Martin Straka was one of my favs too. I was heartbroken when he played for other teams.

Not surprisingly, one of my sons is named Martin!

by **Fire0nice228** on Thu Apr 05, 2012 2:07 pm

Martin Straka was one of my favorites as a kid, he always seemed to be running on the ice. Hated when he scored with like a second left in OT against the Pens as a Ranger one time. Glad to see he's still playing.
