Czech Republic 2014 Olympic Roster

The Czech Republic named their 2014 Olympic roster today. The team is NHL-heavy as they bring 17 NHLers to Sochi.

The roster includes 41 year old Jaromir Jagr who will play in his fifth Olympics. Montreal Canadiens forward Tomas Plekanec was named team captain.

The biggest surprise may be 42 year old ex-NHL Petr Nedved. This will be Nedved's 2nd Olympics. He previously played for Canada in 20 years ago in the 1994 Games in Lillehammer, Norway.
