Canada Cup 1987 Final Game Goals - Canada vs. USSR

Very close game and series. Canada had home ice advantage and got breaks from the referee, and so this allowed them the narrow victory.

hanksnow2 is a fucking idiot

@ 5:50 you can see Howerchuck hook the Russian player who would have had Lemieux, but that was only one of many non calls from Homer Refs!

On most of the Canadian goals, I only see 4 Russians, must be all PP goals.

@SuperStrik9 - Just sounds like the trash the commentators spew out, especially during Can. Russia games. None of these great come backs are possible from teams with less talent, unless, of course the officials are with Can. Just look at 3:10, & there are lots of 3:10's not called, which gives the impression that Can. is miraculous.

I have watched these 6 or 7 of these vids & can see that we get away with murder.

I'm sure, before the game the Ref says to Can., "Don't forget, I'm Canadian too"

3:25 Lemieux's back is clearly killing him...

[tangelorajan]

2:44 also an obvious penalty leading directly to a soviet goal...

I'm Canadian and glad we won, but at 5:49, that definitely was a hooking or interference penalty!

@rwoods2k flyers came back against the bruins in 2010 playoffs trailing 3-0

Not sure how people can think there was favourtism when there was at least 1 goal from the Russians that was on a hook to Bourque! Bah, whatever. Two great teams battled.
