CCCP Hockey Tribute 

Soviet hockey at its pinnacle was a very beautiful thing. A work of art. It is missed! I am an American who can appreciate a beautiful thing. We are not all against you.

The best ever hockey team existed on this planet.

Хоккей моей юности! Лучше уже никто не сможет. Это космос на льду!

This is the best hockey team in the world, Ever! Respect from sweden.

Советский хоккей это не спорт, а произведение искусства.

There will NEVER be anything close to these guys ever again. Simply outstanding.Everyone who was lucky enough to see them play agree 100 percent.Made all other teams look like a bunch of children.They started off slowly,and if the other team started to catch up they changed gear and made like 3-4 goals in 7 minutes which devastated my team completely... :D

Да! Где теперь такие хоккеисты... Харламов, Мальцев, Макаров, Крутов...

КРАСНАЯ МАШИНА! И этим все сказано.

Мы всегда будем гордиться вами!

Если бы боги играли в хоккей, они бы играли именно так

We'll unfortunately never see a hockey team of that standard ever again. Thanks for the video!

На это можно смотреть бесконечно.

Alexander Maltsev is my favorite hockey player of all time. He was so skilled and so smooth, it was pleasure to watch him play. I am glad he stayed with Dinamo(Moscow) and didn't move to CSKA.

I love CCCP even tho I am from sweden, respect to those guys.

The red army team was fearfully talented and awesome. Once in a lifetime...the passing and motion was from another world. The bigger ice surface was made for them. There were two golden ages in hockey - the second was 70's to 80's. I look back and feel so privileged to have seen the red army team play along with the great NHL teams of that era, as the two styles merged into what we have today. The greatest sport in the world to me, comprised of a humble spirit that defines hockey players. And they all thirst for the NHL. Then...and now..

They were truly amazing you dont see this kind of hockey nowadays.

You have got to give this team respect. Coming from an American this is the most dominate team in history that let one game get away. They were a dynasty and no one could touch them in a best of 7

They are the best.. will always be!

I'm new to hockey, but applying my knowledge from football, the Soviets remind me of the Spanish football team in how they play, move off the puck, etc. Its amazing to watch.

2:40 красиво, потрясающе,.

Scrolls down to see if there is any salty Canadian or American hillbilly that dont agree that they were the greatest to ever touch this game. No national pride can ever change it. Regards from Sweden.

total domination.......both winter olympics and summer olympics, a sporting heaven......

Let me give a concrete example, to hopefully make young people better understand what it was like :-) Imagine that you are watching your country (in this case Sweden) play agains CCCP in an important match. Whenever there was was a 2 against 1-situation (2 CCCP players pushing towards the opponent's goal, with only 1 defender remaining), it was a over 75% probability that CCCP would score. All the time, throughout the entire match. See for example 4:18. Or the charge that starts at 5:22. It's like watching your favorite team being overrun by a machine.

Awesome job dude. I hated those Soviet teams growing up but admit they played some of the most exciting hockey that's ever been played. Watched Makarov play in Calgary quite a bit.

They were the greatest! Sorry, Canada.

thaks man! nice video!!!

Это круче нет... !!! ) +

2:40 just amazing!

Апогеем самого мощного противостояния в истории хоккея по уровню звёзд и мощи, сосредоточенного на одной площадке стал кубок канады 1987 года. Русская лучшая пятёрка была уже на закате своей лучшей формы, но там были ещё 3 прекрасные пятёрки. Чего стоит только вторая пятёрка: Каменский - Быков - Хомутов... У канадцев супер звезды... Так вот, моё мнение, русские играли чуть лучше, и если бы не судья, то счёт был бы другим. Это было бы справедливо. Но, Канадцы были тогда превосходны в целом. То противостояние - лучшее, что случилось в хоккее ща последние десятилетия.

Tretiak-Vasiliev, Fetisov, Kharlamov, Makarov, MaltsevThat is my top 5 CCCP players.

I only wish that the Russians could still prepare for the Olympics with their Physical Conditioning and Creative Tactics that they used under a Coach like Viktor Tikhonov before the Berlin Wall came down.

They are people, not monsters. Respect. Unionize the world!

Remember watching "the red threat" as a kid thinking how is this even possible? The Russian army hockey team became my heroes for all things sport really. The mentality they had, the skills and the consistency. I molded everything around them.

Skill and grace........don't care who or what they are but all I can say is skill and grace.

The CCCP team pretty damn good

Советский хоккей-это великолепие!

MY IDOLS FETISOV. MAKAROV. LARIONOV. VIKULOV. STARSHINOV. VALERY VASILIJEV. ALEXANDER MALTSEV. TRETIAK THE ORGINAL GUYS AND ALEXANDER MOGILNY

totally dominating this team are the best

What's the music called to this video???

this is beautiful. #respect

If Kharlamov had played in NHL...

Their skills came at a price, they trained all day every day. Couldn't see their families, no exceptions. It was sad.

Best hockey team ever.

So did these guys like play in the KHL back then? Was that around or what? Just wondering what they did in the four years between Winter Olympics

Никогда бы в детстве не поверил, что в нашей стране космос, спорт, науку, идеализм заменят православие, бухло, бабло и национализм.

This period is a legend in Swedish sport history, called the "ryssfemman", was Swedens encounter with the "Iron Curtain".

From 1954 to 1991 simple dominance nobody is going to beat that maybe canada probably

MY IDOLS MOGILNY. KONSTANTINOV. PETROV. ZLUKTOV. SHALIMOV

What number mihailov is?

This... is Nathan For You.

Spanish? No. CCCP in hockey= Brazil in football. Greatest skill and pure magic, my friend.:)

***** calm down,this is just a sport...

Харламов БОГ хоккея.

then why did they won the most world champs and Olympics then any team in the world?

Envy is an bad feeling.

MAMA RUSSIA

Those teams played hockey the way it should be played----A standard of excellence that will always be there to aspire to, even for today's players and teams. They are role models for some great teams that followed---especially Detroit's Cup champions over the last 15 years, who play that hi-tempo "swarming style", established by Detroit's Igor Larionov-led "Russian Unit" in the mid-late 1990s. A direct descendant of the CCCP-system. Those CCCP teams changed hockey forever.

Individualistic crap, ha? Who is the most individualistic hockey player than Sasha Maltsev ?? The best of all times and places.

Konstantinov,Fetisov,Larionov,Federov

katyn Remember

What you talking about???? @ mrcheatrorter Team canada hockey!!!! Men AND womens 2010 & 2014 gold baby!!!!

best skill! Canadians/US started to play dirty when they realized they're hands made of shit compared to soviets

NHL always was the best league in the world. Better than any soviet and russian league. And of the story!

oh plz the best team my ass

The 75 flyers were better

the flyers sent them crying and usa upset them

The ordinary crap music chosen. Remake this tribute!!!
