"Pepa" Bican such a fantastic striker this guy was

The track of this years "Okolo Slovenska" was originaly build for Peter Sagan as it was expected he will finally compete here during his preparation for the world champs, but since the whole corona pandemic changed everything and during the 16-19 september period Peter will be at the Tour de France, Okolo Slovenska will be sadly again without our biggest cycling star of our history, however the organizers decided to not change the route of this year edition, so we will have some very "funny" stages around Žilina with many short but pretty hard climbs. 6 World Tours already announced their participation. and since Tour de France will be the only competition during this period for "Okolo Slovenska" we can expect some really interesting names on the Slovak roads this year, rumors saying about the likes of Matthews or even Evenepoel...

His IIHF career and NHL career were equally brilliant. In the former, he played in eight World Championships, four Olympics, and two World Cups, distinguishing himself as one of the greatest players ever to come out of Slovakia. In the NHL, he recorded 525 goals and 1,134 points in 19 seasons. He spent the final eight years of his career with Chicago, winning the Stanley Cup in 2010, 2013, and 2015. Congrats Majo ! we are all proud of you one of the toughest, most ingenious and craziest goals in history in the WOG history. My very first total WTF moment when watching ice hockey, was after realizing how he scored this goal. Pure genius Compilation of some of his most memorable goals, enjoy
