1972 Summit Series on DVD

There are several great options for 1972 Summit Series fans when it comes to DVD shopping.

The best all inclusive package is '72 Complete gift set is the second major dvd set about the 1972 Summit Series. The first, Canada's Team of the Century: The Best of '72, was a huge success. '72 Complete will cater more to the hard core fans, as the 8 games in the series have already been released and are already in many people's collection. '72 Complete does feature a bonus exhibition game against the Swedes, as well as many new features such as interviews, Hall of Fame coverage, an original documentary, reunion dinner coverage and a feature called Where Were You in '72?. Judging by early results, '72 Completeis going to be another unqualified success. The 1972 Summit Series will never die.

That being said, my favorite 1972 Summit Series DVD is a little known documentary entitled Summit on Ice. It expertly captures the thrill and emotions in a very well done documentary. It's pretty hard to find now, though Amazon does have some second hand options. Apparently it is also on Netflix for September 2012.
