Miracle on ice Eruzione scores

[WHS1985STINKS]

If you ever need to be inspired....remember the night of February 22, 1980. I remember watching this on television as a 13 year old and how it inspired me.

[Dekman94]

mustve sucked to watch hockey back in the day

[gbdGAMERz]

@sgtbaker4201 Most americans don't even care about hockey

[sgtbaker4201]

@gbdGAMERz thats cause you guys always come in 2nd place so insead of going home and getting better, you guys just complain like little pussies and say things like "most americans dont even care about hockey". when really im not stupid and i understand that in some parts of the states, hockey is just as popular as in canada. not everyone in the usa is a retarded meathead that only likes football, as im sure you are.

[iLove2bcproductions]

@sgtbaker4201 you are probobly one of the most useless piece of human flesh you are gunna die one day and god will say why should i let you in? and i hope he sends you to hell where you belong

[sgtbaker4201]

[GodofGreatness619]

@sgtbaker4201 Hey moron, USA beat Canada in those same Olympics. God what the hell has Canada ever done? Who knows about Canada? What is Canada good at? NOTHING

[sgtbaker4201]

@GodofGreatness619 you guys dont know anything about canada cause your an uneducated lazy useless country that solves everything with violence. go start a war or something.

[PowhatanNDNZ12]

@sgtbaker4201 ok nigger why does it even matter. hockey gets our 3rd or 4th tier athletes so of course weer not going to be the best in the world. So suck a fat one cause you blow and so does canada

[sgtbaker4201]

@PowhatanNDNZ12 nigger? good one faggot. you guys arent best in the world at anything, except being ignorant useless fucks.

[PowhatanNDNZ12]

@sgtbaker4201 we have the best athletes in the world man

[sgtbaker4201]

@PowhatanNDNZ12 according to you guys you have the best everything in the world.

[devilshockey14]

@sgtbaker4201 Canada was stacked.. the US even coming that close is really impressive.

[sgtbaker4201]

@devilshockey14 fuck off buddy...so were you guys. the two best goalies, miller and thomas. patrick kane, who only scored the game winner in the stanley cup finals and some of the best young players in the game, like pavelski and bobby ryan, not to mention little bitch ryan kessler who plays like any other pussy american hockey player, faking injuries and just being american, but he is a good. so you guys got to the finals for a reason. cause you also had A STACKED TEAM. good try tho.

[iLove2bcproductions]

@sgtbaker4201 your really dumb

[sgtbaker4201]

@iLove2bcproductions let me take a shot in the dark and say your really american....i betcha a 1000 dollars im right. "your really dumb" are you 5 years old or something. get your shit talking skills up, then message me, til then fuck off.

[Brett9897]

I guess I should clarify. McClanahan got the goal that secured the gold medal as they didn't use a tournament format back then. It was a round robin.

[tslabjr7]

thats your reaction? you are tied with the best team that ever played and it's the 3rd period and you take the lead and you give a little hollar to the viewers? i would be goin NUTS!

[JuIcetra9]

@tslabjr7 IMMA RAPE U HARD AND BLOODY NIGGAH!!!

[Love4SK]

usa hockey = canadian hockey lite

[steelersfan7238]

How awesome it must have been to be in that building that night!!

[mclaxin9]

i wanna pull that celly when i score next. run up the boards. so sick

[eight634]

@mclaxin9 dirtiest celly in hockey history

[FacebookMeOnMyspace]

"Eruzione got credit for the game-winner, but I tipped it in," said defenseman Bill Baker. "Check the tape. I tipped it between the goalie's legs."

[kjhockeykid11]

ive ssen miracle many times and im supprised that such a big sporting event as the united states playing the soviets and beating them doesnt have a lot of videos on youtube and not as many people as i thought know about it this is a real miracle and it lifted the countrys spirits

[urafatfagface]

haha he say eruzioner

[yankeesnrangers29]

@fastfoitedone you don't know what your talking you stupid ignorant asshole and why are you watching this video in the first place. Screw off you stupid asshole

[97mrman]

@icethug2 u r soo right they sho bowling and FIFA bt they wont evn sho NHL its so stupid

[rnbrip]

why are yall arguing over this video just watch it and enjoy it for what it is jesus christ!

[Shining217]

@howardmark Accuatly this game between the Americans and the Soviets is the number1 greatest game in hockey history it cant be beat by any other game in the vancover gold medal game there was no upset the candian hockey team was better than the american team plus thie game between USA and USSR has more history behind it with lots of issues in both nations and there is no other game in history that can be superior to this game unless there is another team like the Russians and USA 1980's game

[DoinThupidThings]

It's gonna come out one day.....Americans paid the Soviets to take a knee. Farce on Ice!

[daveborn1971]

Eruzione=over rated

[nitsuj182]

my dad calls him mike eruzifonie

[jayblob716]

too bad he'll leave a legacy and youll be forgotten eh?

[DomOnick888]

@daveborn1971 yeah thats why after the olympics of 1980 he didnt continue his hockey career his he said winning the gold is the highest hackey award, yep pretty over rated if you ask me. you dick

[irishpride1213]

@daveborn1971 how many gold medal winning goals have you scored?

[Brett9897]

@irishpride1213 As many as Eruzione....we both have 0. That was the semifinal game. McClanahan got the gold medal game winning goal.

[irishpride1213]

@Brett9897 good point. but still who are you to judge who is overrated? Eruzione did something that makes him a national icon.

[Brett9897]

@irishpride1213 Oh I disagree with the OP. I was just correcting history. I think it was awesome and I love watching the replay. I just wish I was alive when it happened.

[irishpride1213]

@Brett9897 oh ok

[olbigdik]

what number is Igor Suckadickshkie?

[mkailov13]

Despite this fluke, the Soviets amassed the greatest hockey empire of all time.

[pathman2000]

...Before collapsing in failure as a country. But hey, at least they had hockey, right?

[mkailov13]

You think you're so clever. If you actually knew any details about it, it was the political system that fell apart, not the country itself. Russia as a country still amasses great hockey talent. You act as if the country is just gone.

[Limper31]

North American hockey for the win.

Canada showing the world that while Russians can be good scorers, they are wimps and you can skate right around them without a problem.

[mkailov13]

Yeah, first time Canada beat Russia in 50 years. Now you can talk shit.

[fastfootedone]

are you serious??? we beat you all the time!! check '72, '76, '81, '84, '87, '91, '02 and of course '10 when we didnt just beat you, we made you go home and cry for mommy....ovechkin and malkin disappeared.....showed their true 'colors'....lol

[ArgoteMasterChief]

agree.

canada and the rest of the world is lucky that football is not an olimpic game.

that would be an automatic gold every 4 years.

[kjhockeykid11]

@mkailov13 i agree with you and does your name stand for boris mikhailov

[kjhockeykid11]

@mkailov13 i agree with you and does your name stand for boris mikhailov because he is awesome

[mkailov13]

@kjhockeykid11

I'm lucky enough to share his last name.

[DOWORKINATOR]

Do you believe in miracles?!? YES!

[mikediems]

whoever thinks the moon landing was a hoax is fucking retarded a.k.a. sorryass poor sport soviets

[timthomasisbeast]

@mikediems

lololololololololol

[AmericanYokel]

That goal made everyone go apeshit!

[LDis1]

The greatest sound bite in hockey of all time.,=

[Avalancheforlife1319]

One of my favorite players of all time!

[italianwjt]

Where can we watch the whole game for free???

[SoftBank47]

Since this year is the 30th anniversary of the Miracle on Ice, ESPN Classic will probably show it. Maybe somebody has a tape of it and can post it on here!

[Sjusovare2]

This is just a big CIA Hoax !

[420Guitar420]

You got your ass kicked by college kids commie.

[Sjusovare2]

You wish ! But this is sooo fake.

This was just a hoax by CIA for propaganda purpose.

Like the moon landing.

[420Guitar420]

Your stupidity leaves me speachless...

[Earthlinked]

And your birth!!!!!!!!

Any explination about the moon rocks - or the monitor left on the moon that STILL bounces a laser light off the surface (and NO - a laser will NOT bounce off the surface of the moon - it needs a mirror - like the one they left there in 1972!!!!!!!!!! GOOBER)

[Nutriment6464]

@Sjusovare2 LAWL? FAKE MOON LANDING? That's some serious trolling and lack of intelligence!

[Archaebob]

here's the problem mate:

steel melts at several hundred degrees higher than jet fuel even burns

the 9/11 conspiracy theories fail for a number of reasons, but if you're going to use them as an example of idiocy, then at least have some clue of what you are talking about. this just makes you sound pathetically unintelligent.

[ufcrulez1]

@Archaebob shut the fuck up u piece of shit

[snake6phw]

Are you fucking kidding me? Burning jet fuel is nowhere near hot enough to melt STEEL. you fucking idiot.

[galanjose12]

chido amigo pasate x los mios

[Sjusovare2]

Totally fake !

[MegaSpiderMan]

*Dies laughing, then gets resurrected, then dies laughing again.*

[dbzfanl]

How the hell was it fake?

[pinkkitten61]

how is this fake

[icethug2]

fuck espn

they ditched hockey

[Fleury292929]

Seriously now we have to wait for every sunday monday and tuesday to watch the big games.

[mkailov13]

@icethug2

What choice did they have with the lockout?

[DetroitSuperman23]

@icethug2 hockey aint like it used to be though

[FavreianVengeance]

@icethug2

Fuck ESPN period. It's a bunch of pansy ass suits telling us how we should think about sports.

[HuskerFanatic]

I wish someone would put up a video of Johnson's goal at the end of the first period in this game. That goal kind of gets swept under the rug, but it was a BIG one. It tied the game after 1, and it also led to Tikhonov benching Tretiak (maybe the dumbest move in the history of the Olympics).

[cherokeejoshua]

That was a strange move, to be sure. Although both Soviet goalies ended with identical lines: 6 saves, 2 goals allowed.

[killabeezJO]

More like history of sports.

[VinBad007]

Husker. Punch in, Miracle On Ice, Newly Discovered Original Live Call. It is awesome and has 10 minutes of all the highlights and goals of the game.

[Threepster]

No one ever talks about Pav's over-the-shoulder pass. I think it's pretty remarkable.

[tivtivtiv]

Eruzione means eruption in italian.

[btbbuilder]

Say What You will about Eruzione, But my opinion is that on the most important day in hockey history he scored the most important Goal EVER! I think that says it all, Thanks, MIke!! I was 11 at the time, My grandpa and I watched as the game unfolded, I'll never forget that miracle!

[DrunkenPublicness]

"As my buddies tell me to this day, 3 more inches to the left and you'd be painting bridges"

Mike Eruzione~

[btbbuilder]

The point being that it was not 3 more inches to the left, I've played the game long enough and scored enough goals to know that it was a clean shot and the more likely problem is that the goalie was pulled a little to the right leaving the left side open. Eruzione was a great Team Captain. Why do others want to take that from him. everybody has their job to do and he did his very well. His whole team respected him, What are we just Jealous???? I know I would have liked to be on that team :-)

[DrunkenPublicness]

The comment wasn't intended to be taken literally. Whether it was 3,6, or 12 inches doesn't matter.

Eruzione's friends weren't insulting him by saying that. They were telling him in their own way that his goal was the clincher and that if he hadn't made it, life for Mr. Eruzione may have very well turned out differently.

I'm certain his friends all agree that they are privelaged to have Eruzione as a friend before 1980, as well as after.

[btbbuilder]

I know, I was just kidding. I just replied ad absurdum ad infinitum.

[marathon1974]

@DrunkenPublicness Classic my friend. :)

[btbbuilder]

Agreed 100%

There is nothing else to say other than his name will forever be remembered for that goal

[Marski95]

nice

[DrunkenPublicness]

"3 more inches to the left and I would have been painting bridges"

Mike Eruzione-

[SB20Champions]

it just sounds impossible that a bunch of college kids can defeat all pros. and not just pros, pros from probably the greatest hockey country in the world

[prowextwo]

my uncle was the one who passed to eruzione. not much of a pass but he had 2 assists that game

[Fleury292929]

ahaha yea what was his name.

[wheatsandgrain]

pavlich had the assist on this goal

[jaredalberto1000]

fukin liar

[prowextwo]

why would i lie about something like that? idiot

[cny70]

I would die a happy man. Greatest hockey game victory ever.

[SaPrepPride]

I played hockey in this rink and I scored about 5 goals in 4 games I played there.

[bobo2411]

bullshit

[SaPrepPride]

No I swear to God, every yeard, there is a youth Hockey Tournament at this rink called "CAN/AM" And the tournament gauruntee's a atleast one game at this rink. and if you make the finals you play there again, I've played on this ice a good 4 or 5 times.

[conor2479]

yea ive played there alot too. 6-7 times

[TurnJawn21]

he ant lieing I played there 2 years ago we went to the championship so i got to play on that rink twice but we lost in the championship

[Royals219518]

omg so amazing. i get chills every time i watch it!!

[schef99]

Miracle On Ice, Newly Discovered Original Live Call

much better video, good view of where we were then and now, just in a dip, don't listen to the media, we live in the greatest country in the world

[ERWarrior58]

This makes me proud to be an American.

[FALC0NSS0AR]

Biggest Goal In U.S.A Hockey History!

[u0fldt]

the best highlight in sports history.....ever

[joooorgeq]

im a soccer player but what happened in lake placid vs the soviets is the greatest sport story that has ever happened in the whole history of all sports....

[Jrizz88]

soccers gay but i have to admit english premier league is tough average mid fielder 13 miles a game crazy but imagine hockey on shoes thats like 100 miles a game (totally exagerating but yea) hockeys the hardest best sport period this is the greatest highlight in history and mikes son paul is friends with my bro at curry college d111 so yea

[Matthew67899]

For all the glory everyone gives Al Michaels for the last 10 seconds of the game, he and Ken Dryden sure did butcher the call on this goal.

[TheBestBand101]

Erozioni!

[sportsboyj]

Spell it right!

[kyledonnelly]

spell what right?

[sportsboyj]

Nvm

[54spiritedwill54]

The biggest goal ever scored. Period.

[cgbazar]

That never gets old.

[NJDevilsRule]

Great goal, great game. Absolutely timeless!!!!

[jauhani]

wow

[jerjer900]

would anyone by chance have the full game of the usa betting the russians on tape they might want to sell

[spartanwr89]

i would never ever sell it even if i had it

[11913946]

Hockey is only for Americans, Canadians and Russions... nobody else, in the world, cares.

[yoda124]

what about europe?

[ToivoLappi]

Russians*, my friend, not Russions. And I believe there are two fine countries in between Russia and the USA/Canada that care about hockey.  With your ignorance I'm sure you're blind to see Finland and Sweden.

Plus, there are a lot more countries that care about hockey too. It's not just the USA, Canada and Russia. Hockey is monstrously big in Finland and Sweden.

[11913946]

Sorry for my misspell, nothing important in the discussion.

In Europe, hockey isn't in the Top 5 of the most loved and apreciated sports - football, basketball, handball, volleyball and rugby. That's, of course, true. I live in Europe, and i see it every day.

[11913946]

An football is, obviously, the real one. The one that is played in all over the world.

And i could talk about Atlhetics and Cycling or even Roller Hockey (Quad) - the one that isn't played in ice.

[Skerj93]

Everybody who is anybody cares

ur just pissed because uas won!!!

[Skerj93]

what do u like soccer?

LOL

LOL

LOL  Pansie Field fairy

[TrivadoRain]

nothing wrong with soccer, soccer games can get pretty hardcore man, you ever watch a good one? but yea...hockey is better, cant deny it

[burakhan22]

whats wrong with you?

[Cromulus420]

Yea I guess the Czechs didn't care when they won gold medal in hockey.

[dohzer13]

I live in Australia and I like ice hockey. :)

[krazykoolchris12]

congratulations

[dohzer13]

Thanks.

[Lovethevillian]

Way to go, Rizzo! The biggest goal ever scored. Period. The boys slapped the pinkos' behinds.

[inferno272]

nobody cares....hah, the miracle on ice is akin to a 12th grade schoolgirl kicking the crap out of Mohamed Ali. If you dont care, youre an idiot, plain and simple, IMHO its the greatest sporting moment in the history of sports. BAR NONE.

[andye2007]

A great moment no doubt... but the greatest? That shows a bit of a narrow outlook. It might not even be the biggest hockey upset. A few years earlier the Poles beat the Soviets after losing a recent game to them 22-0. Still, the Miracle on Ice was amazing, let's just not assume because the US was involved it trumps everything else.

[Avino3]

Well lets also remember that this was in the Olympics, and the United States was also AT WAR with the Soviets at this time. That's what makes it so big.

[andye2007]

It was the cold war, not quite the same as being "AT WAR" but point taken. Still the Polish victory took place at the world championships not the olympic but not some meaningless exhibition either. Also, the Soviets occupied Poland at the time so plenty of bad blood there too.

[btbbuilder]

If you remember the tension between the US and Russia, We were having duck and cover drills in Junior high. From my Vantage point it was the best Game Ever!

[420Guitar420]

No assumptions, it does trump everything else.

[don696969]

Haha, i just got the whole game and finland game yesterday from e-bay, bloody briliant!

[elgatonyc]

more highlights from this game. please!

[Lioc]

okay, i'll try to get more clips from the miracle

[EmbassyRow37]

Yes, nobody else cares. Especially you, apparently. So leave us to our wonderful moment.

[taags]

great for americans...nobody else care

[ozburn320]

cares, nobody else cares. Not care, where you from anyways?

[Lioc]

Do you have any ideas where I can get a video of the whole game?

[joecrewdog]

yes... I have it

[GArbAGeMAn113]

i have this movie this is the greatest moment in Hockey anyway nice vid game winning goal by Mike "Rizzo" Eruzione 5/5 too bad now USA sux
