IIRC, the spectrum was absolutely going BEZERK. Fans banging on the glass behind the Russian bench yelling at them... you name it.

I remember that either when they left (or wouldnt' come out) that just egged the fans on even more and they started thowing beer and garbage on the ice... It was nuts. Welcome to Philadelphia! Welcome to the USA!

You talking about the same game?

Man, the Flyers are my team!
abc_123,

Absolutely,that game was one of the best I've ever seen.....Dave Schultz,the best defense man at the time, laid out 2 Russies in a few minutes after the start of that game......Go USA.
