Canada Cup '87 DVD Box Set

Attention all Canada Cup fans! You will definitely want to ask Santa for the new Canada Cup '87 DVD box set this Christmas.


For the first time ever, Canada's complete tournament, featuring all nine Team Canada games and including the dramatic three game final between Canada and the Soviet Union will be available on an exciting new six-disc DVD set that's a must-have for hockey fans everywhere! - Buy The DVD: Amazon.ca - Chapters - Amazon.com

This historic series has some of the greatest superstars playing in the prime of their careers.

MARIO LEMIEUX's goal, assisted by WAYNE GRETZKY in game 3 of the finals to win the Canada Cup was arguably one of the most memorable plays in Canadian hockey history.

i got this for Xmas, and an injustice has finally been righted.
Game 2 of the Finals was a double over time classic that was edited/butchered to fit the 2 hour VHS format, and when transferred onto the first dvd release, those 2 hour masters were re-used.
this time the full length of the game Gretzky calls his best has been re-stored
