sprig Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 Anyone know if Spirko is young enough to play in this year's WJC tourney? I know he's played in at least one, if not two, WJC's for Slovakia, would be nice to see him in there this year also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I highly doubt he's eligible for a third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ethanm Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Interesting story on Spirko (aka Sparky) in the Herald today. It's nice to see his unbiased family advisor helped Spirko make the right choice for college. His family adviser also steered him to UND, Spirko said. "He told me this place is best for me," Spirko said. His adviser? Winnipeg's Frank Kollar, a Slovakia native who is the father of former Sioux goalie Andy Kollar. Sparky Slovakian happy at UND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubz Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Interesting fellow. If any of you get a chance to talk to him, you'll see what I mean. Truley one of a kind. Ask him if he misses playing Omaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, the interview will come next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
