Alright, I'll say it. I'm not sure Hawerchuk's hook on the Soviet player during the iconic "Gretzky to Lemieux" goal on the rush wasn't interference. It wasn't blatant, it was borderline. But it could easily have been a penalty without much controversy. Great hockey, though.

Look at the line-up: Lemieux, Gretzky, Messier, Bourque, Goulet, Coffey.... just not fair for other teams. Lol

I was at this game and it was unbelievable. Randomly high fiving everyone on the way out.

I've been watching Canadian Hockey for around 50 years, in my opinion this Team was THE greatest Hockey Team ever assembled on Earth. Bar none.

Two of the best teams ever man for man what a series what a game.

6:33 the goalie looked at his glove to see if there was a hole in it LOLLLL

And nobody talks about Bourque!

Still great in 2024

Some numbers stood out...99 and 66.

Man the goalies were just awful.

The great one with Mario Lemieux so great memories of those great players

More unbelievable were the infractions..interference...that should have been called that weren't...watch closely...

The synergy of Gretzky and Lemieux on the ice was something superior and an anomaly in Hockey history. Something to whitness and remember.

How good was Doug Gilmour at this time? Best player on the ice at both ends. He was double shifting in OT and every time he was on the ice he was creating quality chances.

99, 66, 11, 77 and 7 on the power play, I remember watching this back then and I don’t think it really sank in on what kind of firepower we had on the PP👍🇨🇦

Imagine a power play with Coffey, Bourque, Mess, Gretzky and Lemieux. Crazy

Still get goose bumps watching this. Best team canada in my life time. Russians were damn good and probably had one of the best lines ever, the KLM line. krutov, larioniov and makarov.

Gretz was the most dominant and game changing player beside Orr,Mario the greatest natural goal scorer.Oh CANADA

Final series was the best hockey ever played. IMO

No penalty on Gretzky at 337 is brutal no call sorry

1993 leafs were so awesome best team ever

1993 leafs were the best better then the 04 leafs Gretzky had other plans there will never be a team like this Toronto you had a chance too bad

the last goal was the greatest goal in history in my opinion

Mario was 22, and Gretz was 26... unreal.

Legend has it that Crosby was conceived during this 1987 tournament...

Refs gift to Canada. Clear hook penalty on the play. Canada played dirty hockey all the time in this series.

Gretzky, Lemieux, and Hawerchuk. What a line.

Mario Lemieux's career goal ratio .754(690/915) ranks second all-time.🇨🇦🏒

Gretzky's game resembled that of a chess master on ice hockey skates! His record 1,963 Career Assists alone merit the all-time points record in 246 fewer games than Jagr's 1,921 Career Points ranking second all-time.

Gretzky! Best playmaker ever...

When Gretzky is your wheelman, all you have to do is basic hockey.

of all gretzys greatest moments this is the top. Soviet team overall was better..

gretzky was the engine , he played so many minutes and he was the conductor..

I never understood why people said Gretzky was not a great skater... He wasn't a blazer, But he could shift directions and not lose a step, had a very quick first step Of course it helps when you always know where to be on the ice

GREATzky

Superman and Batman.

Greatest collection of hockey talent ever

if were being honest.. soviets have a gripe!

that was a nasty hook... lol

Everytime i had a motivation problem in life, work or sport, i watched this clip, afterwards the problem is solved….

#10 with a nice hook lol, Russian players were falling all over the place on this play

What a shot by the GOAT

Cujo played one hell of a game that night.

Are you f-ing kidding me? Borque, Coffey, Messier, Lemieux AND Gretzky in the same line?! That's just insane. It's borderline cheating.

Considering the greatness Canada had at the time, you have to give credit to the USSR.

Had the VHS highlight video of this tourney as a kid and probably watched it 100 times 😅. Was a huge Lemieux fan, he was a great player and always had a big smile on his face scoring goals.

Where’d you find the footage for this game because I can’t seem to find it

❤🎉💜💜💜💜💜

The russians would have won on european rink. Canada had big advantage of smaller ice

This Bruins team was a goal scoring machine but their Defense was just awful and the Habs exploited that in this series. Theodore stole This and game 6 though.
