In 1987, the National Hockey League (NHL) All-Star Game was held in Québec City. This event traditionally features the best players in this North American league. However, instead of holding the usual match, the organizers of the Québec City event decided to stage a tournament between the best players from the NHL and from the Soviet Union. This was quite a feat during the Cold War, when Soviet players rarely left their homeland. This album invites you to experience the cultural celebrations that were held alongside this unusual event!
