    1 The Prague Spring It was much more than ice hockey, of course. It was a replay of a lost war. It started with an uprising, but it ended with a hockey game. Around 4:30 on the morning of August 21, 1968, a black Volga limousine, its bulbous, large headlights leading the way, sped from the Soviet embassy in Prague toward Czech Communist Party headquarters. Over the years, the black Volga limousine had become mythologized throughout Eastern Europe as the vehicle commonly involved in the abduction of citizens. In the early morning, thisCOPYRIGHTED particular Volga was trailed MATERIAL by a convoy of Soviet tanks. When the convoy arrived at Communist Party headquarters, operations forces sealed the premises and cut off all phone con- tact with the outside world. With that done, a group of Soviet troops armed with machine guns entered the offi ce of Alexander Dubcek, who just six months earlier had been selected as fi rst secretary of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia. CC01.indd01.indd 1 33/27/12/27/12 112:032:03 PPMM 2 Breakaway Although a Soviet colonel had initially entered the offi ce, where Dubcek was meeting with members of his cabinet, it was two plainclothes offi cers—one old, one young—sporting tweed jackets and open-neck shirts who initiated the dialogue as soldiers stood by the door, machine guns in tow. “Comrade Dubcek,” they respectfully addressed him. “You are to come with us straight away.” “Who are you, what do you want?” Dubcek replied. By the time Dubcek and his colleagues were placed under arrest and escorted by KGB agents to a barracks in the Carpathian Mountains in what is now Ukraine, Operation Danube had over- taken Czechoslovakia.

  • THE WHITE STUFF These Aren't the Jets That Abandoned Us for the Desert, and We're Not the Same Heartbroken City
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/the-white-stuff-479035043.html THE WHITE STUFF These aren't the Jets that abandoned us for the desert, and we're not the same heartbroken city By: Randy Turner Cal Botterill knows hockey. He knows Winnipeggers. And he knows psychology. So when it comes to the prevailing hopes and fears of Winnipeg Jets fans — as their team is set to embark on only its second playoff run since the emotional return of NHL hockey in 2011 after a 15-year absence — it would be difficult to find a better source to ask how Winnipeggers will deal with the inevitable roller-coaster ride to come. And what does that reaction say about us? After all, Winnipeg is about to take stage under the bright lights. There are only two Canadian teams in the post-season and only one of them is in the centre of the hockey universe. The other is the Toronto Maple Leafs. Remember, this is a Canadian city that lost its NHL franchise in a gut-wrenching ordeal 22 years ago, when distraught children offering the contents of their piggy banks were among the desperate thousands who offered whatever they could in a failed grassroots bid to help keep the team — eventually bought, relocated and renamed the Phoenix Coyotes — afloat here. Before that, the club known as the Winnipeg Jets was defined more by losses than victories, especially in the post-season, where they won just two playoff series in 17 years. The current incarnation — born in Atlanta and named the Thrashers — has yet to win a single playoff contest, making it into the post-season race just once, in a 2015 four-game opening- round sweep courtesy of the Anaheim Ducks.
