Back to the Past Pt II

Black Dog announced the other day, that the 72 Summit Project is only the beginning;

Also considering the positive response that this has brought (thanks very much by the way) and the interesting conclusions we have come up with so far I just wanted to announce that I'm going to be carrying on with this little project. We're going to look at the 74 series between the Soviets and the WHA, the Canada Cups, the Olympics, basically any of the best on best tournaments that I can get footage for. Also hope to look at the Miracle on Ice and, if possible, some Oilers' playoff games from the eighties.

That means, I guess, that the 74 Series is next.  Dibs on Games 3 and 7.
Game 3 was probably the worst game of the "Friendship Series" for Canada.
Game 7, along with the opening two games, was one of the best.

There are only seven of the eight games available.  It seems Game 5 has been lost in the mists of time.

The Edmonton Public Library has five copies of  Team Canada 1974: The Lost Series.  [The Library also has five copies of the 76 Canada Cup]
The 74 Series can also be purchased from the makers, and from elsewhere I suppose.
I recently bought the WHA Chronicles direct from them and their service was fine.

Go Canada
