They never wrote about this side of domestic hockey so hard and in detail, only mentioned casually, trying to quickly hush up a difficult topic.
50 years ago in the history of world sports, an almost the most striking event occurred: the first series of matches of the USSR national team with Canadian professionals in hockey history.
Hockey players of “maple leaves”, millionaires, superheroes who easily smashed all the teams of the world, met the Soviet team with contempt, calling it a rabble of lovers, whose goalkeeper is a hole.
Almost all sports commentators of the world predicted the shameful defeat of our team.
But here is the whistle of the judge, and after thirty seconds, Phil Esposito opens an account. Six minutes later, the score doubles, and under the mocking laughter of local fans over the ice arena, a funeral march was sounding.
It’s better if the taps of the Montreal stadium did not. Our hockey players seemed to be resurrected and began to rigidly smear Canadian ice professionals. Canadians violated the rules, the judges turned a blind eye to this, the world fell silent in shock - but the Russians methodically and confidently beat arrogant opponents ...
And then it became clear: this is not so much a sports competition. In the eyes of millions of spectators, two worlds, two ideologies, two morals clashed in a fierce battle ...
The book tells:
- how the conquered Canada Cup was taken from our team.
- for which God and the king of the NHL was nicknamed the hockey bully.
- What did Canadian players in the cabin of the aircraft in relation to the judges.
- How Canadians accredited Bandera at the Olympics-76 in Montreal.
- as the NHL coach forced his players to physically eliminate our hockey players.
- How Canadian journalists ate their newspaper articles by losing a bet.
The book will not only remind you of the courage and sports heroism of our famous hockey players in all Soviet-Canadian hockey competitions since 1954. She will help us understand ourselves. Our national spirit. Our will. Our faith is victory
