Any place Phil Esposito played is alright with me. You saw true Canadian greatness that won the 1972 summit series when Canada beat the Soviets. At that time only Canada could beat the Russians in hockey
I'll argue that the 79-80 squad did more to bring joy back to basketball for me than any other. Larry, Tiny, Big Red, Cornbread, and Pistol Pete were flat out fun to watch. shame they couldn't get the banner that year.
It always makes me laugh that they tried to make the Cs out to be the working class team vs the Showtime Lakers. I think they had surprisingly similar entertaining styles. I think it was Showtime Celtics and Lakers.
