    The WHA players did their best,even with hockey legends like Gordie Howe,Bobby Hull,Gerry Cheevers and Paul Henderson.They faced a superior russian hockey team.To beat the Soviets you had to have the very best team,a mix of Nhl ans WHA players and even then sometimes it wasn't enough.But seriously I tip my hat to all these great players,canadian and russian who gave their 110% and defended the honor of their respectives countries with all they had.

      Eric Beaulieu. Всё вы говорите почти правильно, однако если канадцы будут играть корректно и без хулиганства, то у них нет никаких шансов победить СССР и Россию. Советский хоккей был и всегда будет лучший в мире. Нет и никогда не будет им равных соперников. Канадцы играют за деньги, а русские за Родину, флаг, герб и свой народ.

    These hockey players were soldiers in the Army, and played together 11 months of the year. They had 2 weeks off in summer, and 2 weeks off at New Years.

From bottom to top (Tretiak Away Red jrsey with white sleeves example: Two Blue Stars then 20 on top another blue star and then on shoulders a red star with the hammer and sicklle.

    4:40 and thats exactly why the Canadians deliberately broke Kharlamovs ankle in the Summit Series with 3-4 games to go.
    Canada and the US were always 'NHL' is better. Well Summit Series disproved that claim. Getting the best individual players doesnt necessarily make them the best team. A team of good individuals wont necessarily get walked over by a decent team.

    The Soviet National Teams from 1956 to 1981 could destroy anyone they faced in a 2 to 3 game series as they did in the annual World Hockey Championships and the Challenge Cup. No one not even Czechoslovakia's top line teams. They rarely lost more than 1 or 2 games in every 5 to 6 game annual international tournament they played from the 1950's to the 1980's.

    The most successful team in NHL history is the Montreal Canadiens, with 24 Stanley Cups and 35 Finals appearances. The greatest number of times the winner of the USSR championship was CSKA Moscow - 32. Their meetings with each other:
    12/31/1976 Montreal Canadiens - CSKA - 3: 3
    12/31/1979 Montreal Canadiens - CSKA - 4: 2
    12/31/1985 Montreal Canadiens - CSKA - 1:6
    09/18/1990 CSKA - Montreal Canadiens - 3: 2
    CSKA won here!
    Also, CSKA is the record holder of the European Ice Hockey Cup, which won 20 titles, and from 1978 to 1990 did it 13 times in a row. Champions of European countries participated in the draws of this tournament.
    Therefore, CSKA can be called the strongest team of all time!
    From 1975 to 1991, the clubs of the USSR played 108 matches with the teams of the National Hockey League. During this time, the Clubs of the USSR won 58 victories, 10 matches ended in a draw and lost 40 times to the representatives of the NHL.
    Meetings of the owner of the Stanley Cup with the champion of the USSR, who became in the season in which the match took place:
    12/29/1979 New York Islanders - CSKA - 2: 3
    12/31/1985 Montreal Canadiens - CSKA - 1:6
    01/12/1991 Pittsburgh Penguins - Dynamo (Moscow) - 3: 4
    Meetings of the owner or finalist of the Stanley Cup with the champion or silver medalist of the USSR Championship, who became in the season in which the matches between them took place:
    12/31/1976 Montreal Canadiens - CSKA - 3: 3
    01/11/1976 Philadelphia Flyers - CSKA - 4: 1
    12/29/1979 New York Islanders - CSKA - 2: 3
    12/29/1985 Calgary Flames - Dynamo (Moscow) - 4: 3
    12/31/1985 Montreal Canadiens - CSKA - 1:6
    01/09/1990 Boston Bruins - Dynamo (Moscow) - 1: 3
    09/13/1990 Spartak (Moscow) - Minnesota North Stars - 8: 3
    01/12/1991 Pittsburgh Penguins - Dynamo (Moscow) - 3: 4
    As can be seen from the results, the USSR clubs on the field turned out to be stronger than the NHL clubs.
    Also, the symbolic team of the century included 4 players who played in the USSR championships and 2 players who played in the NHL. The six members of the symbolic team were chosen by voting organized by the IIHF. The selection committee included 56 hockey experts from 16 countries in Europe and North America.
    Symbolic team of the century:
    Goalkeeper: Vladislav Tretiak (USSR) - 30 votes.
    Defender: Vyacheslav Fetisov (USSR) - 54 votes.
    Defender: Börje Salming (Sweden) - 17 votes.
    Wing: Valery Kharlamov (USSR) - 21 votes.
    Wing: Sergei Makarov (USSR) - 18 votes.
    Center forward: Wayne Gretzky (Canada) - 38 votes
    In connection with the above, the USSR championship can be considered the strongest league in the world!

    ImI do not know if I'm color blind or not. But why do both teams have the same same colors? It bothers me. That's why I like Sweden, Nashville, Florida, Devils, Calgary sweaters when I play Nhl or watch matches

      Well, Canada and the USSR both had red and the primary color of the flags, so it stands to reason it would be reflected on their sweaters. These days, since it's Russia again, they're much easier to tell apart since they usually incorporated a bit of blue into it.

    I also love before game 1 in 1972...everyone "Russia will be lucky if they win one period let lone a game." Fast forwrd 2 years...anyone who says Canada will win or even be in the seires should have been laughed at. The shame of it all was for the first Canada Cup in 1976 Russia sent over the "B Squad" they did not take the tourney serisuly at all. Still makes me mad to this day...

      The head coach of Soviet natiomal team Boris Kulagin said in 1976 -" Canada Cup is fully commercial tournament , so it do not seems to me as serious competition . I am not interesting to coach national team in this tournament " - so Viktor Tihonov , who was at that time head coach of double national team was assigned to coach national team on this tournament . He make the team as mixture of national and double teams players . The team , without such key players , as Harlamov , which was seriously injured after car crash , Mihaylov and Petrov , who refused to play without Harlamov , Yakushev and Shadrin , defenders Tsygankov and Lyapkin , - team even oficcially was called " experimental " . So , from beginning , Soviet officials knowed well , that this team has no chances to win .

    "I think the Canaaian Boys will take;em." LOL LOL. So let me get this rght chief, the better league (NHL) only beat them because Clarke cheapshoted Kharlamov and you think this league of hacks will beat them?? They could not even beat Tretiak's back up and Sidelnikov was nowhere as good as Myshkin. BTW, if Kharlamov was not injured by Canada, GM8 would not have meant anything other than how much better ARE the Soviets better than the NHL. BTW, for all the cry baby 1972 Canada fans ...alk you hear is "Bobby Orr did not play." Well in 1984 Canada Cup Fetisov culd not play due to a broken leg...and they STILL needed OT to won.

    • @BestWayKilla
      @BestWayKilla Před 3 lety +1

      The only crying I'm hearing about '72 seems to be coming from you. And as much as you try to dismiss the difference Bobby Orr made, in '76, he had to be helped over the boards by his teammates because his knee was so shot, and he was still the MVP of the tournament. So if you don't think the difference he would've made back in '72 would've been astronomical, you're just plain delusional.

      Translation from Russian: "The Canadian team played hockey without rules, because if they played by the rules, they could not win a single match against the USSR team." I cannot agree with you. Team Canada broke the rules several times, but there were rules nonetheless....

      ​@@basilcarroll9729Canadian women don't play hockey either. They play wrestling on ice instead, just like men. Is it a national practice, not to learn how to play better so that you wouldn't have to break your opponent's leg to win? Be careful, or you'll develop a new Canadian style of running, where your athletes will bump into opponents to kick them off the track so that they could walk to the finish line, alone and peaceful. And call it "North America style for real men". 😁

    Unlike Game - 1 of the 72 Summit Series in Montreal, were the Soviet
    press branded our boys as sore losers for failing to shake hands at
    centre ice, WHA ' 74 remembered the international hockey custom, and
    shook hands with their opponents after the 3 - 3 tie in Quebec, which in
    reality should have resulted in a Canadian victory.

      The Soviet teams that played NHL teams were bolstered with players from other teams and yes the red army team was bolstered so no they do not as you say win here over Montreal.
