Interesting. Will there be some broadcasting too?

 

[DrunkElkCZ]

Yes, it will be broadcasted by Czech TV... so there probably will be some streams as well

Was there no overlap between these teams? Or how do they decide who is on which?

Sounds like a fun 'old timers' exhibition though.

Mainly the goalies and some skaters. Hnilička will play for Golden hattrick team (he was a 3th goalie in Nagano), Roman Čechmánek will play for Nagano team. Skaters who played for national teams in Nagano and WCHs will play for Nagano team.

Robert Reichel is probably the most notable example. He was a key part of Czech team in Nagano and then at 2000 and 2001 WHCs he was even better (and wore the C)
