Originally drafted by the Blackhawks 199th overall in 1983, it would take seven years for Dominik Hasek to come over to North America and join the Chicago organization due to the Iron Curtain. In a system that already included Ed Belfour, Hasek would only play 25 games over two seasons in Chicago before being traded to Buffalo and blossoming into one of the NHL’s top goalies. The first European born goaltender to lead the NHL in GAA and earning considerable awards/accolades throughout his career, Hasek owns claim to the highest save percentage in league history as well as two (2) Stanley Cups, six (6) Vezina Trophy's and two (2) Hart Memorial Trophy's as well as a historic Olympic gold medal in 1998 with his native Team Czech Republic. Offered here, from the era of the mid-1990s during his time in the "Queen City" as a member of the Sabres, is this stick used by Hasek. A Cooper Reactor model twig in more seldom seen white, black and blue colourway, "Hasek" is stamped in black over the upper shaft and the stick retains Dominik's original white tape job around the handle/knob, bottom of the paddle and blade. Displaying game-use via puck marks over both sides of the paddle, red post paint transfers over the backside of the upper shaft and numerous marks and abrasions throughout the entirety of the stick, it is also worth noting that a few dents occurred by shots are seen throughout as well as a green mark over the top of the paddle and puck marks over both sides of the blade tape plus a large tear near the heel on the forehand side.
