Background
While the 1960 U.S. Olympic hockey team won the gold medal, the most notable moment in U.S. Olympic hockey history is the 1980 Miracle On Ice. Coming is as a long shot with the Soviet Union heavily favored, head coach Herb Brooks led the team of young college players to defeat the Soviets in the round-robin, then went on to defeat Finland for the gold medal. The win is considered one of the top moments in the history of American sports. -
