The Soviets won gold on the strength of a 5-0 shutout of Canada and a 7-1 victory over Sweden in the medal round. The famed "KLM" line of Vladimir Krutov, Igor Larionov and Sergei Makarov led the offense while captain Viacheslav Fetisov anchored the blueline. Other key members of the championship squad were Andrei Lomakin, Andrei Khomutov, Valery Kamensky and Anatoly Semenov.
