	Canadian national men's hockey team - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Canada has been one of the most dominant hockey teams in international play, winning the 1972 Summit Series against the Soviet Union, four of five Canada Cups dating back to 1976, winning the 2002 Winter Olympics, two recent IIHF World Championships, as well as the 2004 World Cup of Hockey.
		However, Canada was able to win only four World Championships and no Winter Olympic Gold medals between 1954 and 1991 when the Soviet, Czechoslovakian, and Swedish teams dominated.
		This was because Canada's best professional players were unable to attend these events as they had commitments with their respective National Hockey League.

	[No title]
		Really to make the World Cup of Hockey fair it should be held alternating between North America and Europe, but because of the time difference this probably won’t happen for the same reason as why the NHL players may not be going back to the Olympics in Italy in 2006.
		The main reason that I’m looking forward to the World Cup of Hockey is having the chance to see Slovakia play in the Tournament after they were disgracefully prevented from competing fairly in the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City.
		Was it fair that Canada had to compete without their best players in the Olympic before 98 — no, but at least Canada had enough quality in depth to be able to compete and be competitive — Slovakia didn’t have that luxury.

		As was the case in the first two Canada Cups, the USSR used the tournament to tinker with its roster.
		Like 1976, the finals of the 1984 Canada Cup were a best-of-three affair, though the series proved to be an anti-climax after the thrilling Canada-Russia game.

	Canada's Best Hockey Players vs the World: The Stats
		Canada has been an amazing 10-2 in must-win games (this counts the final 3 of the '72 series, all semi-final games, the 1981 final, the last 2 of the 1987 final, and the last game of the 1996 final).
		Some say Canada benefits from playing most games at home, which is probably true, but its road record is 5-1 (3-1 in Moscow in 1972, 2-0 in Philadephia in 1996), which is better than its home record (if you include the 1996 round-robin, Canada is 5-2 on the road).
		Biggest Threats to Canada's Dominance: The U.S. (population 261 million in 1994) and Russia (population 150 million in 1994) in theory could have more talent to draw upon than Canada (population 28 million in 1994), though at present more than half of the NHL players are from Canada.
