A superior team does not rely on playing at home, with their own officials, to win tournaments, like Canada did. As for your off topic insult towards Russia, it just shows that you are frustrated and don't want to accept the truth.
Here's the truth. The Soviets built its supremacy myth on the fact it was allowed to being its best to every tournament while Canada was banned from doing so by the IOC and IIHF. And you've got the gall to complain that Canada had to hold its own tournament to circumvent a blatantly discriminatory policy? What is it about that that Russian fans don't, or are unwilling, to understand?
A superior team doesn't go the worlds and Olympics every time with their absolute best players, kick the crap out of rank amateurs, then whine and pout for 20 years because they finally had to play a credible opponent.
There has never been a game of hockey devoid of missed calls on both sides. Darius Kaspairitus said it best after a Russian loss at the World Cup. "We always blame the referees." He's gotten over it. You should too.
I'm never frustrated by Canadian wins. I am frustrated, though, by the constant whining of Russian hockey fans after a loss and the rare acknowledgement by them that Canada actually produces decent players.
As for my bribery reference, how many times on these boards have Russian fans accused Canada of buying the referees? That makes it very much on-topic.
