The 1972 Super Series is one of the greatest events in the history of world hockey. The first meeting between North American professionals and Soviet amateurs became something much bigger than just a series of prestigious international matches. It can be called a true ice battle, a clash between two powerful superpowers, a vivid confrontation of characters, mentalities, and established stereotypes. It was a competition between capitalism and socialism, transferred to the sports arena. The 1972 Super Series not only opened a window to North America for the Soviet people but also showed the world that the Soviet Union was not just tanks and missiles. After this series of eight matches, the boundaries between professional and amateur hockey players were blurred. The most vivid memories of the participants in this incredible confrontation are collected in this book with the help of Tretiak, Yakushev, Dryden, and others. A book for those who love football and sports.
