• Canada defeated Finland to win the 2007 Men's World Ice Hockey Championships at Moscow, Russia. The Russians took the bronze.

• Canada also captured the gold at the 2007 Women's World Ice Hockey Championships, defeating the United States at Winnipeg, Manitoba. It was the 9th gold medal for Canada. Sweden won the bronze.

• The Canadian and Russian junior teams met in the 2007 Super Series, an event designed to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the 1972 Summit Series. Like the 1972 series, four games each were played in Russia and in Canada. Unlike 1972, the tournament was wildly one-sided with Canada easily winning the series with a 7-0-1 record.
