Canada Cup '87... Lemieux + Gretzky = Magic
Loading...
Uploaded by EllerySneed on Nov 8, 2006
MAGIC in HAMILTON!! The NHL needs HAMILTON!!! Here is my favourite Hockey Moment of All-Time! The 2 greatest players of All-Time had not only joined forces under the red and white of the maple leaf... but united on the same line! There will never be another Wayne or Mario again this was truly a great time to be a Hockey fan.
Following the exciting 1972 Summit Series between Canada and the Soviet Union (Canada won that one too!), interest in a world professional ice hockey championship increased substantially. The Canada Cup would bring together the top hockey-playing countries in the world.
It was held in 1976, 1981, 1984, 1987 and 1991. It featured competition between teams representing Canada, Czechoslovakia, Finland, the Soviet Union, Sweden, the United States, and (in 1984 only, taking the place of Finland) West Germany. All the tournaments were won by Canada except the 1981 tournament, which was won by the Soviet Union. The 1987 event is often called one of the most spectacular in hockey history.

Laughing at the Canadian refs.. 6-5 goal is a joke. I'm glad Canada didn't win yesterday against the Russia. Refs were trying to even up the game in the last 10 mins..

Greztky to Lemieux will it ever get any better than that on any Team Canada??
-
I wish I was Canadian :(
-
Best hockey I ever watched.....2 GREAT teams, up and down the ice.

@SonOfTamriel It was Dan Kelly's call of Lemieux's Goal that brings tears to my eyes in remembering this game. R.I.P.: Dan Kelly

-
No neutral zone trap in this game.

There's nothing better than international hockey.
-
Brings tears of joy to my eyes, what a goal! Can't get any better then 66 and 99.

@ingelaaaaaa haha this coming from a swede, from a country that pretty well wins nothing at all. But when you won in 2006 that was obviously a farce. Your coach must have blown the referee till his head caved in because Finland was obviously better. All sweden is good at is cross country skiing, which no one but sweden and Finland cares about lol. Get out of here Bjorn and go comb your bald spot

Gretzky interviewed years later:
"I had the puck and saw Murphy and Lemieux open and thought - I'm sure as hell not passing it to Murphy"
awesome!
