In the mid-1970s, at the height of the Cold War, two of the Soviet Union's long-dominant national hockey teams traveled to North America to play an eight-game series against the best teams in the National Hockey League.

This book tells the story of the epic game, in which nothing less than the credibility of the NHL was at stake. If the Red Army team completed its series sweep by defeating the two-time Stanley Cup champion Flyers, the NHL would no longer have been able to claim primacy of place in professional-level hockey.
