  • In One of the Most Dramatic Upsets in Olympic History, the Underdog U.S
    In one of the most dramatic upsets in Olympic history, the underdog U.S. hockey team, made up of college players, defeats the four-time defending gold-medal winning Soviet team at the XIII Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid, New York. The Soviet squad, previously regarded as the finest in the world, fell to the youthful American team 4-3 before a frenzied crowd of 10,000 spectators. Two days later, the Americans defeated Finland 4-2 to clinch the hockey gold. The Soviet team had captured the previous four Olympic hockey golds, going back to 1964, and had not lost an Olympic hockey game since 1968. Three days before the Lake Placid Games began, the Soviets routed the U.S. team 10-3 in an exhibition game at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The Americans looked scrappy, but few blamed them for it--their average age, after all, was only 22, and their team captain, Mike Eruzione, was recruited from the obscurity of the Toledo Blades of the International League. Few had high hopes for the seventh-seeded U.S. team entering the Olympic tournament, but the team soon silenced its detractors, making it through the opening round of play undefeated, with four victories and one tie, thus advancing to the four-team medal round. The Soviets, however, were seeded No. 1 and as expected went undefeated, with five victories in the first round. On Friday afternoon, February 22, the American amateurs and the Soviet dream team met before a sold-out crowd at Lake Placid.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-17666-8 - Dropping the Torch: Jimmy Carter, the Olympic Boycott, and the Cold War Nicholas Evan Sarantakes Excerpt More information introduction Miracle on Ice Mike Eruzione as the team captain stood on the platform, hand over his heart, with his Olympic gold medal hanging from his neck, as a series of cables attached to the roof of the arena pulled the U.S. flag in the air ahead of those of Finland and the Soviet Union. He was singing words to the “Star Spangled Banner,” leading the crowd in the song, as the music played during the medal ceremony. It is difficult to overstate what he and his nineteen teammates on the U.S. Olympic Hockey Team had done to reach this moment. Just in athletic terms, their victory was astonishing. They had defeated a Soviet team that had won the gold medal of the last four Olympiads. During that run, the goal differential between the Soviets and their opponents had been 175–44. After 1980, the Soviets would not lose to another U.S. team for another eleven years. In fact, they would not lose any game in international play for another five years.1 As impressive as the hockey team’s success was in athletic terms – and it was extraordinary – their gold medal was far more significant to the psyche of the nation. “It was what America needed in troubled times,” an official of the U.S. Amateur Hockey Association explained a few weeks later. Their win pro- duced “a release of emotion and national pride that swept a country searching for something to bolster its pride.”2 Their triumph was also of immense importance to the international Olympic movement.

  • Four More Fantasy Camp Coaches Delivered in Time for the Holidays a Limited Number of Spots Remain to Be Filled for the Camp
    DATE: December 14, 2014 CONTACT: Jon Lundin, ORDA director of communications, ([email protected]) at (518) 523-1655 ext. 5313 Four More Fantasy Camp Coaches Delivered in Time for the Holidays A Limited Number of Spots Remain to be filled for the Camp LAKE PLACID, N.Y. –This year’s group of Miracle on Ice Fantasy Camp participants have been good boys and girls this year. Santa checked his list, checking it twice, and found that none were naughty and all were nice and left four new coaches under the tree for the April 3-7, 2016, in Lake Placid, N.Y. Santa’s little helpers added 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey gold medalists Bill Baker, Rob McClanahan, Mark Pavelich and team assistant coach Craig Patrick to the coaching staff that already featured 11 players from the historic team. These four join the staff which also includes Neal Broton, Dave Christian, Mike Eruzione, John Harrington, Steve Janaszak, Mark Johnson, Ken Morrow, Mike Ramsey, Buzz Schneider, Dave Silk and Mark Wells. Following the 1980 Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid, in which he scored the game-tying goal against Team Sweden, Baker went on to play for the NHL’s Montreal Canadiens, Colorado Rockies, St. Louis Blues and New York Rangers. Today, Baker lives in Brainerd, Minn. where he works as an oral surgeon and maxillofacial specialist. McClanahan scored five goals during the Olympic hockey tournament, including the game winner against Team Finland. That win secured the improbable Olympic gold medal. McClanahan later went on to play in 224 games with the NHL’s Buffalo, Hartford and the New York Rangers.
