RARE 1979 New Year Eve's Clash East vs West CANADIENS v RED ARMY Ticket Stub

THE PRIDE THAT CLOSED THE DECADE.

Available is this very RARE and SCARCE December 31, 1979 Ticket Stub of this Classic Rematch 

between the Four time Stanley Cup champion Montreal Canadiens vs the Soviet Red Army. 

This rematch of the 1975 New Year Eve's Game (which is considered to be the most memorable in hockey history) 

was again a battle of nations and 2 different systems. It pitted the four-time Stanley Cup champion Montreal Canadiens against 

a Red Army team which was itself four time Soviet champion. This classic match up would unofficially crown the best club team of the 1970's. 

For this '79 New Year Eve's rematch, many favored the undefeated Red Army team. 

A crowd of 17 thousand packed the Montreal Forum to see the Habs again dominate in a 4-2 Canadiens Victory.

Yvon LAMBERT, Steve SHUTT (with 2) and Bob GAINEY scoring for the Canadiens with V. Zhluktov and H. Balderis replying for the Soviets.

The Soviet Coach Victor Thikonov said "It's the Best Team we've played".
