he's behind such success. and we're back with gary cooper and. hockey legend. but we have a situation. because a lot of individuals won't be able to actually join their national teams for stand players russian players. hockey is a team sport isn't it and i mean i wonder if it's a collective effort that is more important than skill as certain individual star hockey players what is more important. you know because i mean for instance you scored so many goals in your career but it was awful wayne gretzky you
5:31 am
know you were a team with the. team for. the . score you. need to play a good defense will you. just push. everybody's course. you know it's a it's a different. time. there's. some great hockey hall of famers but we were really. great job for our so the team effort is more important maybe a star separately from the team. of course. when the games.
5:32 am
win the championship it's humid for you need everybody. you mentioned russian team and. olympic team is in the limbo because russians can't participate in the winter olympics under their own flag they will have to compete as square of. athletes plus we have the absence of n.h.l. how do you think that will affect the whole tournaments that's that's something new for the olympics absence of the n.h.l. now the russian team competing on the natural flag. i think that. there has been so much talk already but the by the time the. tribes i think we all forget that i will fully we can focus in the tournament on the games and i know that you know it's been a tough year for hockey. and it still is not. coming and that the russians. a tough time for the tourist course you know on. their hockey but i think that both
5:33 am
with time will heal on the we have. no less than sixty days to go for this going to be where you know we can really focus in the game and say so you're saying the an absence of n.h.l. in this strange situation with russian hockey players competing under national flag is not going to affect the whole thing i can ask them in your opinion i mean. time will heal doesn't many days to go by the time that the box drops over the field and you have a chance to be a part of the six. and the south koreans have actually asked the i will see to let russian hockey team comment play because they're worried about the economics of things when russian team comes a lot of t. shirts are sold a lot of tickets to the games are sold do you think maybe economic pressure could change something here how do you. think the hockey world were. the
5:34 am
russian play is there for us and speak by the whole world family and. it's one of the. russian players so you know. so. people out of the hof you have to really worry about. the situation that the russians will be obese you know if you. read just it has been made. by the russian sports. so. just as a human being and as a hockey player i'm going to ask you questions and i just want your personal opinion on this then know that hockey players the russian hockey players have all passed the doping test and the witness there says that the hockey players weren't part of the doping scandal anyway why force them to wear neutral colors i mean can they just if they're not part of the doping scandal can they just where their national. sports wear and compete on their own flag. well i hope the
5:35 am
good but. i think this is a good story why why this has happened in the i.o.c. . has done the a lot of work and study through the sheet to ation. how much joy for the right person told well i know enough to say. you know they say it's been tough time for them the russian sports five million of the hockey you are stupid. if it was strong but to just it's not one thing that we do go that way. because emotionally russians are very split about this most of the athletes say they going to go to the olympics and they will compete regardless of anything under natural flag problem russians are saying that doesn't make any sense because if you go to the olympics you should really just be able to raise your flag and hear your anthem play other half of the russians. they're saying you know what go we should go and
5:36 am
compete everyone knows from which country you're from and your win is our win anyways what's your take on that's what do you say in effect they should go and compete and be proud that you are russian whatever you know and enjoy the moment on the i think that's sort of for that you know. what has happened with this situation and so i think that the hopefully. someone athletic is competing under a natural flag to feel like it's demoralizing for him or on the contrary it can fire you up so much that you're going to stick it to the world and we think that they could use that that it's also the actually that's trade seoul for many many years many many months britain sells for herself the because you know so i think that. they will. come up with a lot of it's right and chief which are all hopefully for you for the eric corey
5:37 am
has been watching t.v. watching olympic competition on the ice and will it matter for you that these people aren't competing under russian flag will you look at them differently. if i look at hockey i watch it. but didn't know the game i didn't know the players who skated out there so i have to be a little bit stupid story but look up the game and the results of the play itself. sets a story that's not so you could go and play or yeah but that's a true story do you think generally speaking collective punishment should exist in sports. collective punishment to things that should exist in sports in generals. like this. it's just sad story will. but the misfortune.
5:38 am
which used to go. to this site are not asking to analyze what's happening to the letter as a sportsman as someone who played with a team and that can happen in any team in any country not only in the olympics you can test a sportsman for adopting and it turns out he takes the substance and then the rest of the team doesn't and should the whole team be punished for he's a. collective punishment exists or it's small. it's the. thing you know it's kind of fair it's unfair for other people. i'm nothing but cheating or whatever so very. soon there will always say that sports and politics don't mix they really do at the end for instance here and worship with things that the ban is politically motivated and there are a lot of other athletes around the world who cheat but they don't get as heart of
5:39 am
a punishment as russian athletes it this time around so do you think there's a political tend to this whole story. really. to me that's the good side of it enough knowledge to know what's going on you know of course the. media has. you had everything you know it's a. build up to. the west but do you feel like sports can exist without politics because just recently had a wada correct ready set that that says quote sports being played without politics interfering and impossible dream. sports can be free i don't know if you. see it at that but you know what i'm doing right now you know. it's a lot of. votes for still watch of the big fast you know and the sports that. i don't
5:40 am
know. now this was the first time a national team is being suspended from the olympic game over doping accusation do you feel this could change the future course of how sports are perceived in the world do you think you could make sports clean or do you think the next olympics will be stricter for everyone or is just a matter of time until more profound and less detectable substance. mission. to make sure that the sports just believe. we spend so much money you. spend so much money in. this situation we put the money. away hopefully. will. we were there. every way. with the best of the best.
5:41 am
