Canada vs USSR 1987 Bench clearing brawl

April8


Canada Russia Hockey Fight • The “Punch-up in Piestany” erupted halfway through the final game of the 1987 world junior hockey championship. Canada was assured a medal, and would have moved ahead of Finland for the gold if they had beaten the Soviets by at least five goals. • The blow-up began as a fight between Pavel Kostichkin and Theoren Fleury. Four Soviet players left their bench to join the brawl, and then all the players on both teams swarmed onto the ice. Excerpt from cbc.ca.

    The Russians tried to start it, but the Canadians finished it! LOL. We really took those commie bastards to town.
    The Canada/Russia rivalry is still good nowadays; it’s a classic, but it’s just not the same as it was back in the day.

    You haven’t seen sh*t Krata, you claim to have seen something when you know your argument is at hand, nothing but cropped up opinion – thus, it being bullsh*t.

    3 Canadians Vs one other player? Wow, big deal. At least it isn’t the end of the world for that guy. Canada is not that aggressive compared to other Countries. What Country do you live in? How many Crimes happen there? Not as much as us I bet. Someone holding a gun up to someone . . . now that is unfair and Cowardly.

    The reason you are ignorant is because you judge a Community from a few individuals. I wouldn’t judge your country and call them all retards and idiots just because you are.

  20. On April 8th, 2010 at 5:41 pm BandxOfxBrothers Says:

    And what are you basing this off of? This Brawl? If you watch (and the announcer even said so) the Canadians were trying to stop and stop other people. It is kind of hard to not fight back when you are getting beat up.

    And you are calling Canadians Idiots and retards? You can’t even spell. What right do you have to call someone an idiot or a moron . . . or even a whole community for that matter when you yourself are one.

    And Canadians are unfair? Yes, but so is everyone else moron.

  21. On April 8th, 2010 at 5:45 pm krata77 Says:

    @ACDCxxx5 Yes, Canada is the best at hockey, but that was not the point. The point is your players are unfair assholes who always use cheap shots and unfair fighting when they are loosing. I have seen it way too many times…..

  22. On April 8th, 2010 at 6:11 pm ACDCxxx5 Says:

    @krata77 No matter how much you say Canadians are dirty, cocky, cheap and all we do is brawl, we can still beat every other country without fighting, we’re still the best hockey players in the world. Did you watch the 2010 Olympic Hockey?

  23. On April 8th, 2010 at 6:54 pm ACDCxxx5 Says:

    Watch at 1:51, at the bottom left of the screen, the guy in white does a UFC takedown on the other guy.
