The year 2022 marks the fiftieth anniversary of the 1972 Summit Series. This hockey series, played between Canada and the former Soviet Union, has become the subject of Canadian cultural mythmaking since Paul Henderson's winning goal for Canada during game eight. This collection explores the role of the 1972 Summit Series in persisting conceptions of Canadian self-identification. Our project creates a new approach to this seminal event in Canadian sport history by assembling a concert of voices through diverse forms of criticism and storytelling modes.
