1982 World Junior Championships Canada vs. USSR December 26, 1981, Winnipeg Arena Canada s first attempt at putting together a true national AllStar team for the fledgling tournament proved wildly successful, as the team roared through the roundrobinonly tournament with a 601 record and a gold medal. This amazing performance saw Canada throttle the Russians 70, as Mike Moffat earned the shutout, and future NHLers like Marc Habscheid, Scott Arniel, Paul Cyr, Troy Murray, Paul Boutilier, Garth Butcher, Randy Moller, and James Patrick dominated from start to finish. As a bonus, a highlight package from the final game of the tournament, the tense 33 tie with Czechoslovakia on January 2, 1982 that earned Canada the championship, is included.
