1974 Summit Series - DVD Release

DVD Release

In December 2006, Hockey Canada and the Hockey Hall of Fame approved the release of a 1974 Summit Series boxset. The original master tapes of the series were destroyed long ago, but a pirated recording was recently uncovered and donated to the Hockey Hall of Fame. With Video Service Corp, seven of the eight games of the series were released on a 4-DVD set with a 1970s Summit Series documentary as a bonus feature. Game 5 of the series was not included in the boxset as it was mostly lost through poor television transmission and is thought to be lost for good . VSC was the same company that released the boxset for the 1976 Canada Cup.

Famous quotes containing the word release:

    If I were to be taken hostage, I would not plead for release nor would I want my government to be blackmailed. I think certain government officials, industrialists and celebrated persons should make it clear they are prepared to be sacrificed if taken hostage. If that were done, what gain would there be for terrorists in taking hostages?
    Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
