Phil Esposito's Interview 1972 (HD)

More than 15,000 heckling Canadian fans boo their team while watching game 4 at Vancouver's Pacific Coliseum. Canada plays poorly for most of the game, with 38 of 41 shots on goal stopped by Soviet goalie sensation Vladislav Tretiak. The game ends with a score of 5-3 for the Soviets and home-team fans boo Canada right off the ice. Assistant captain Phil Esposito is not taking this lightly. He skates back onto the rink, sopping with sweat, and scolds Canada. “I'm really disappointed [with the fans]. I am completely disappointed. I cannot believe it,“ he says with a hangdog face. “Some of our guys are really, really down in the dumps. We know, we're trying, I mean, hell, we're doing the best we can.“
