NHL legend Dominik Hasek has been a vocal critic of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine since it began. This week, Hasek said he’s received death threats from former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev, who is currently deputy head of Russia’s security council chaired by Vladimir Putin.

NASCAR driver Katherine Legge said she has been receiving “hate mail” and “death threats” from auto racing fans after a crash last weekend at Rockingham.

Four-time Indy 500 starter Katherine Legge is finding acceptance more difficult in NASCAR. She is driving some Cup and Xfinity races in 2025.
