Last Saturday, a good friend called and asked me to meet him as he had “some people I would enjoy meeting”. I never expected to have my picture taken with 3 hockey heroes from the first “Summit Series”](http://www.1972summitseries.com/) involving Canada’s best hockey players against Russia’s best: From left: Paul Henderson, who scored the winning Team Canada Goal in the 8th and final game in Moscow; me; Yvan Cournoyer; Vladislav Tretiak
Canada won by the skin of their teeth. Americans remember this Russian team 8 years later at the Lake Placid 1980 Winter Olympics as they were defeated by team USA.
Awesome Gilles! Although I was only in Grade 2 at the time, I remember the hype of it a the time. I enjoy re-watching the games every once in a while as well.
