1988 Calgary Olympics Hockey Tournament

Day #4

Game 7 USSR 8 Finland 4
The Finns and Russians went toe to toe in the first period, delighting the Calgary crowd with creative attacks and 7 goals.  The goals kept coming, but the Finns simply didn't have the firepower to keep up and, as a result, they take their first loss, while the Russians rebound with a big win.  Sergei Nemchinov was a beast with 4 points on the night.
