Legacy · 1977 Team Canada

Phil Esposito played for Canada when they finally returned to the 1977 World Championships after a 7 year dispute with the International Ice Hockey Federation. For the first time ever, Canada was allowed to bring NHL professional hockey players. Unfortunately, Canada struggled against the Soviets and had mixed results at the tournament. Phil Esposito was the Canada's captain and assistant coach. His brother Tony Esposito was Canada's starting goalie. Assistant captains were Hall of Fame player Rod Gilbert and former Stanley Cup champion Carol Vadnais. Both Ron Ellis & Dallas Smith came out of retirement with the goal of making Canada's 1977 roster. In the late 70s, the game of hockey was changing. More European players were being exposed to NHL players and scouts. During the 70s and early 80s, more European players were getting drafted and starting to find some success in North America. The NHL was starting to shift into the global brand we know today. Canadian NHL players at the 1977 World Championships were integral for hockey’s next evolutionary steps. And from this historic journey, Canadian players have continually grown to find renewed pride and success while wearing their red maple leaf jersey on the international stage. Sadly, many players from 1977's Team Canada have now passed away. This video is meant to honour and remember the names, memories, and contributions from 1977's Team Canada — and their unique hockey legacy. ~ Canada's 1977 Roster Goal — Tony Esposito - Jim Rutherford Defence — Carol Vadnais - Dallas Smith - Dennis Kearns - Phil Russell - Greg Smith - Rick Hampton Centre — Phil Esposito - Pierre Larouche - Walt McKechney - Wayne Merrick Left Wing — Ralph Klassen - Eric Vail - Al MacAdam - Guy Charron Right Wing — Ron Ellis - Wilf Paiement - Jean Pronovost - Rod Gilbert ~ Tournament Awards: Best Goaltender — Göran Högosta (Swe) Best Defenceman — Valeri Vasiliev (Sov) Best Forward - Helmut Balderis (Sov) ~ Media All-Star Team: Goaltender Göran Högosta (Swe) Defence František Pospíšil (Cze) - Valeri Vasiliev (Sov) Forwards Helmut Balderis (Sov) - Vladimír Martinec (Cze) - Vladimir Petrov (Sov) _ _ _ This video is a personal inquiry project and it is for educational and historic purposes only.
