Where were you when Paul Henderson scored the winning goal of the Canada/Soviet hockey series on September 28, 1972? If you are 55 or older, you probably know exactly where you were. I do.
Ken Dryden played goal in that winning game and has written a personal story about how it felt being part of Team Canada. This isn't a play-by-play of the statistics of the series.
