*technically, Dryden should have gotten an assist on this goal*

*crowd was already calling the play before ref noticed*

Europeans are used to playing Bandy.They don't like the game of hockey when it's played properly 😂

My older brother was a big Bernie Parent fan, and yes Parent was also a superstar goalie, so he would give me the gears about Dryden for not always having to face many shots. Yes, the Habs defence was simply dominant, but that made Dryden's job harder for he had to keep his head in the game. This is not easy to do. Him being such a cerebral goalie made it work.

Best game I’ve ever seen, even better cause I was there

Hard to believe he is only 36 here

I can't believe Phil stole this interview from Brent Leroy. "Look, I'm just out here well, down here tryin' hell, I'm tryin' my best. And for people to boo, I mean I'm disheartened and disillusioned. And let's face facts. Karen is a good player. And that's not to say I'm not out here givin' my 150%. But to boo?"

Le Gros Bill was an unbelievable player and person...greatest leader in NHL history

Vancouver has been and still is a big embarrassment in hockey

Could you imagine how many people’s feelings he would hurt today???

My hero growing up, da roadrunner.

He 's in the rafters with all the greats for a reason ! Le gros BOB. Beaucoup de respect .

By the way, communism is terrible; at least when applied to human societies, and not in small, isolated human settlements or communities.

Thinking of this (kinda) of the women's Olympic team has been getting so much heat and might be ralling together to overcome the media/fan pressure. Canada has a press issue when it comes to sports Good on Vanessa Gilles to speak out similarly when getting interviewed. Go Canada

I have always had respect for Phil Esposito and was proud he was a Bruin. This speech gave me chills. Hockey is Canada and Canada is hockey. Phil spoke from the heart. So happy they won the series.

Chico didn’t want getting his hair piece ripped off.

Where are the game officials? Are they watching in the dressing room too?

Maurice Richard was the Babe Ruth of hockey. Jean Beliveau was Lou Gehrig.

Really poor summary…Richard scores winner!

It's amazing, it's like watching Mario Lemeiux or Connor MacDavid in black and white.

The Panthers are now on Lord Stanley’s Cup.

I🧡🛢️

2024 Edmonton Oilers?

iirc they destroyed Boston that night too...4-0? or 5-0? one or the other...at 1:14:40 its probably the most stanley cup filled photo that will ever be taken

Never been anything like him

I saw them do this again in 2024 :o

I’ll say it as a Russian. People in the Soviet Union laughed at this speech. In this spirit: “Look, just a day ago this guy was shouting with an arrogant look that the Russians would not score and would not win a single game.” Well, where is all this on his face now? Canadians do not fully understand what it cost the Soviet team to win against the NHL all-star team in Montreal, under the colossal pressure of foreign stands. The Canadians had their entire half-century of hockey history behind them. The stars of the past were probably present at the triunes, right? Maurice Richard, Elmer Luck, Boom Boom Geoffrion, and many others. And so (sorry) shit yourself at home. I won’t rant about who won and who lost. Hockey won! But it should be noted that in this series the Soviets showed that they came to play hockey, and the Canadians came to fight the “commies.” I don't care about Henderson's goal. In Russia, the symbol of the super series will always be 7-3 on the Montreal forum scoreboard.

On top of all his accomplishments, Dryden wrote, what is to me, the best sports book ever written. The Game, is an insight into a hockey team, on and off the ice.

Huge Boston Bruins Fan here but I was a HUGE KEN DRYDEN FAN

Better than throwing dog poop on the ice 😊

If Grapes had his way, 7 Bobby Orrs would be on the ice at all times. It's too bad that Orr couldn't skate after 1975.

They’re going to be rats once the Florida Panthers get their hands on a Stanley Cup

Roger Crozier had to collect himself after that move at 6:20. Beliveau is the best ever, talent, class, he could've been a French movie star.

All these years later and the Bruins haven’t learned a thing. Still had like four to many men penalties against Florida.

Sweet goal with La Fleur's pass!!

Even wore his skates from 1929

Again!!

What film is this from?

Here is a funny fact. I was born and lived in Toronto all my life. Never cared about or watched hockey until I was 20ish. The first game I happened to watch by pure chance was the Leafs vs Habs in the late 70's. This was of course when the Habs were like a hockey team of the Gods. OMG the Habs made the Leafs look like a team of geriatrics! Plus there was Gallivan! I instantly became a life long Hab fan.

Roy was so pissed after the second goal then he just shut out Panthers for the next 153 mins.

Canada may not be great at many things,but Canada is the greatest hockey nation on planet earth !!!

30 years and counting... No Bettman?

'Its the press that said they werent good. NOT a single one of us said they werent good.'

May 10th 2024 is today. 45 years ago this happenned!

FYI. Bigger RATS please! Panthers in Round 2 vs the sorry ass Bruins.

This is Canada's greatest speech from a sweaty hockey player in Vancouver during the 1972 Summit Series

My favorite athlete of all time. i'm 58 and have been playing sports all my life and with the exception of (American) football, i was ALWAYS #12, to this day, any jersey or sweater i get, regardless of team or sport will have #12 on it. I was born in Montreal, so, I had no choice (with 3 older brothers) I started playing organized hockey at age 4 and, of course The Habs have been my favorite team all my life. And like @mkraulis I went to his bar in Lachine (i'm pretty sure it was there, i dont know how many he had) my cousins lived a couple blocks away, the establishment was called "Cournoyers", i remember. that was over 40 years ago. What a thrill it would have been to have met my idol. Like Yvan, i was always small and among the fastest. Great memories. I just learned only one person has lifted Lord Stanleys cup more than Yvan's 10 times.

Although I'm a Bruins fan, I have a deep respect for Montreal. I saw them at the Forum in 1986 when I visited the city.

This iconic speech from Canada’s leader Phil Esposito, galvanized the team & Canada to support them went they went to Russia. This speech speaks of his love for Canada! Powerful stuff! 💪❤️🔥🇨🇦

He's such a windbag
