SPLU - 1972 Russia-Canada

1 hour 9 minutes | Thursday, September 28, 2023

In 1972, Shawn was 3 and Howie was 12. In this episode, Shawn asks Howie a lot of questions about the Canada-Russia Summit Series and Howie responds with so many memories of the exasperation, the misery, the agony and the ecstasy of being a Canadian hockey fan at that time. The pair look at why this series took place, how it all went down and the aftermath for Canadian hockey as well. There are times when emotions almost spill over. Eventually, Shawn asks the question, "Should Paul Henderson be in the Hall of Fame?" The boys don't fight, but they do differ on the answer.
