Rendez-Vous 1987
The hockey world was at its finest with the 1987 Canada Cup (held before the 1987-88 season), which was Mario Lemieux's coming out party, and the historical pairing with Wayne Gretzky (arguably the two best players ever, at their peak, and playing on the same line). Preceding that however, in place of the A?ll Star game in 1987 (for the 1986-87 season), they held a two-day tournament, between NHLers and Russians.
BPro was offering their suggestion as to how to improve the WBC, and their first suggestion reminded me of the above.
