This is a much better team compared to the one we had in 1980.

was the question how do the teams compare talent wise or how does winning the gold compare? if talent wise I have no idea wasn't alive in 1980 but as far as winning the gold this isn't even a question. the 80 game was about MUCH more than just hockey

well, sure .. this team is much older and are professional players .. but i don't think this team wins a seven-game series against the 1980 USSR team with all things equal ..

No kidding!!

That 1980 team had list to the Soviets like 17-2 a couple of weeks before that.

We had ZERO chance to win that game. I watched it that night. (We thought it was live!)

It was a miracle, a team touched by God and Jim Craig played like a man possessed. Nothing will ever match it !
