I'm not so enamored with the 1987 Canada Cup team. Yeah, they had Gretzky, Lemieux, and Bourque. That doesn't hide the fact their defense didn't exactly comprise of Orr, Potvin, and Robinson. They didn't exactly dominate the Soviets, despite playing at home and going up against...what's his name...damn I forgot, but it sure as hell wasn't Vladislav Tretiak in the Russian net.
As pointed out by several of you, on paper and in the games, the 1976 Canada Cup team was mind-blowing. But, I also take off points for the fact that they didn't have a challenge in that tournament from the Soviets, without Kharlamaov, Mikhailov, Petrov, and a few more.
My best team was the 1981 Soviets. That team was stacked.
