1975 Montreal Canadiens v. Red Army on New Year's eve. Ended in a 3-3 tie. Some consider it the best game ever played.

 

The Forum was a magical place to watch a game, and the Habs were the equivalent of the 27 Yankees at that time, while Red Army was a collection of the best players in the Soviet Union, who were billeted in a camp year round, away from their families, training nothing but hockey. Gives me chills just to think about it.
