We're closing in on the 50th anniversary of the end of the 1972 Canada vs USSR hockey Summit Series (September 28). The nation was on a knife's edge emotionally as we appeared ready to lose to the Soviets. Then Paul Henderson scored the winning goal in the final three games and rescued our national pride. Still Henderson is not in the Hockey Hall of Fame. What is more 'famous' than the three winning goals Henderson scored in the Summit Series.  Vladislav Tretiak, the Soviet goalie Henderson beat with those three game-winning Canada goals is in the Hall of Fame.
