mtl won the west 2 years ago

interesting.

this is what I found though...

Tretiak was selected by the Montreal Canadiens in the National Hockey League's (NHL's) 1983 entry draft. The Soviet Ice Hockey Federation, however, refused to grant his release, and Tretiak never played in the NHL.


it could be that both him and the federation didn't want anything to do with the NHL lol
