think a few people are missing the fact it states 'some scenes were changed due to dramatic effect' or whatever so not all of it was correct but I still thought it gave us a pretty good idea of how the whole thing went down!
@DickJohnson3434 Yes, I've seen that interview. I've also seen the game itself on DVD and there was no audible booing before the 3rd period. During the pre-game player intros, the Canadians were cheered, particularly F. Mahovlich, Cournoyer, and a couple others. There was no noticeable reaction at all when the Soviets were introduced.
@EdHater111 Sorry, you are the dumbass,...I'll say it again, now listen....I' am a Canadian & I am a fan of Russian hockey. I was 31 in "72", & watched every game,..where were you in "72"?
I was a Montreal Canadians Fan, until I saw the Russians. When I saw them I said,' WHOLY "F"', how did he do that!! To make a comparison,..if you were a checker player & had never seen chess, & thought checkers just couldn't be beat, well, think again! They were AMAZING! btw, again,..where were you in 72?
@ct368 Clarke got Valery Kharlamov & Goldsworthy got Yakushev, (not as well kown). Kharlamov was a marked man in a few encounters with the N/A Maulers, before he died in an auto accident along with his wife, Aug. 1981.
His son was suppose to be better than him, but he came to N/A too soon & they (N/A Maulers), pounded the shit out of him, with (as usual) the officials watching
@hanksnow2 you obviously didnt watch the series. The Russians had an 'inside' man referee FOR THEM (from east germany). game 6 canada had over 30 minutes of penalty time while the russian had only 2. And then they used the same ref for insurance in game 8. They pulled other tricks too like not lighting the goal light
Maybe. But you also have to factor in the referee scandal (the german referee), a lot of canadian players left the team by the time game 8 came by. Also no gordie howe, bobby hull, bobby orr

@wg390.. Wish I could understand what you are trying to say. I am a Canadian who is a Russian Hockey Fan.
I believe the Russians have been the best hockey players for at least 60 years.
I don't know where you are coming from or where you are from, but you page seems like you are Russian?

@scottwill19 I wouldn't say that it was terrible but it seemed very rehearsed. It was supposed to be a heat of the moment kind of thing.
