The Boys of WInter

They were the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team, a blue-collar bunch led by an unconventional coach. Their “Miracle on Ice” has become a national fairy tale, but the real Cinderella story is even more remarkable. The story is about olympic hockey when every other country was using professional hockey players and the USA were the only other team that used amature/ collage kids.
