Comments (48 words max.) : I fondly recall watching a lot of these games. And now judging by your final stats I would tend to say that it was too close to call. Both Canada and Russia were and still are great hockey nations.

Comments (48 words max.) : Without a doubt during that period of time USSR was a better team, and if you doubt that-remember that most games were played in Canada, and the referees were pro-Canadian. Great site by the way, very correct and unbiased.

Comments (48 words max.) : Heres a shocking piece of fact I can remember clearly but cant find any record of. In the 1972 series I remember Russians scoring a goal in game 7 or 8 that should have counted and won the game and series. It was so fast the ref. missed it. The reply show

Comments (48 words max.) : I was never more proud to be Canadian than on September 28, 1972. However, CCCP rallied to easily win 74 series against WHA. For the players, nothing beats intl hockey.

Comments (48 words max.) : CCCP wins EASY! Canada Cups 74 and 91 were NOT their best team BUT WHA was a better league than NHL (33-27-7 against NHL).So it is
14-11 for CCCP!

Comments (48 words max.) : Your conclusions are misleading. The 1974 team (WHA All Stars) was NOT Canadas best. Best on best... SU won ONLY once... 1981 Canada Cup.

Our greatest rival every, without question, was the Soviet Union. Victor Tikhanov is, in my opinion the best coach ever - and for all of his accomplishments he gets the same amount of appreciation acco

Canada Cup 76 should not count.
Soviets lacked best line of the seventies:Mikhailov-Petrov-Kharlamov and superstars Firsov,Yakushev.Had lot of juniors
in stead.Was second rate team,see text about CC 76 and 91!
