Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted February 25, 2002 Why is the 1960 U.S. team completley overlooked by everyone. Everything is about 1980. Don't get more wrong 1980 was a remarkable upset, but would people be calling it the Miracle on Ice if Al Micheals hadn't called his know famous line? 1960 might of been even more impressive. They won 7 games in 7 days, including beating the Commies, and the Canadians... who didn't participate in 1980. Like 1980,political tensions between the US and the Commies were at an all time high. It would of been interesting if NBC did a special on the first miracle on ice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
