[email protected] The thrilling games in 1972 - THE
SUMMIT SERIES forever left an indelible mark on the face of hockey.
But, the full story of the event was still yet to be discovered
until decades later when the first DVD set of the games came out in
2002 and this author uncovered numerous factual errors with the
original scoring stats. Thus began "a voyage of discovery" of 10
years and the writing of this book which represents the definitive
look behind "The Series we thought we knew." The UNTOLD story
reveals to readers what really happened on and off the ice when
Canada clashed with the USSR (also known then as the Soviet Union
and now as Russia) in hockey's epic and historic battle in the
month of September 1972 STAT's, LIES & VIDEOTAPE contains
never-before-revealed facts, stats, stories & insights within

3 Intrasquad games all held at Maple Leaf Gardens - as well as the
8 games versus the USSR and 3 more exhibition games in Sweden &
Czechoslovakia. The May 2013 edition is updated with exciting new
details including pictures of actual ticket stubs for 10 of the 11
