Jack O'Callahan:
This is crazy, Herb. Bringing him in this late. Rob McClanahan:
We've got parents buying tickets, getting rooms. What are we supposed to tell them? And with one of us going home as it is... Herb Brooks:
I guess I don't have to ask where you stand on this do I, Rizzo? Rob McClanahan:
This wasn't Rizzo's idea. Mike Eruzione:
You want me to say, "I'm scared of getting cut?" I'm scared of getting cut. Everyone is. Jack O'Callahan:
We just want it to be fair, Herb. Herb Brooks:
Don't try to tell me what's fair. He was right back there with us in Colorado. Mike Eruzione:
That was six months ago! Herb Brooks:
And you don't think he's been playing for the last six months? Mike Eruzione:
Not with us he hasn't! Herb Brooks:
So? Mike Eruzione:
So there's a difference! Herb Brooks:
Like hell there is! All I know is that that kid can flat out play! Jack O'Callahan:
What and we can't? Herb Brooks:
He's got great vision on the ice... Rob McClanahan:
That's not the point! Herb Brooks:
I'll tell ya what else he's got. He's got the attitude I want on and off the ice. So somebody here better tell me why I shouldn't be giving him a hell of a look! Mark Johnson:
Because we're a family! Herb Brooks:
What? Mark Johnson:
We're a family

You know what?
Put your street clothes on.
00:00:02.015 --> 00:00:03.676
'cause I got no time
for quitters.
00:00:03.075 --> 00:00:06.776
Come on, Herb.
Nobody's quitting here.
00:00:06.853 --> 00:00:10.812
You worry about your own game.
Plenty there to keep you busy.
00:00:12.425 --> 00:00:13.414
A bruise on the leg
00:00:13.493 --> 00:00:16.792
is a hell of a long way
from the heart, you candy-ass.
00:00:16.863 --> 00:00:19.923
- What'd you call me?
- You heard me.
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:23.264
You want me to play?
Is that what you want?
00:00:23.336 --> 00:00:24.462
I want you to be
a hockey player!
00:00:24.537 --> 00:00:26.266
I am a hockey player!
00:00:26.339 --> 00:00:28.136
You want me to play
on one leg, huh?
00:00:28.208 --> 00:00:29.607
I'll play on one leg!
00:00:29.676 --> 00:00:31.871
- That'll get them going.
- Oh, yeah.
00:00:31.945 --> 00:00:34.277
- Will that make you happy?
- I'll clean up.
00:00:34.347 --> 00:00:36.338
I am a hockey player!
00:00:36.416 --> 00:00:38.145

00:00:38.218 --> 00:00:40.379

00:00:40.453 --> 00:00:42.058
The U.S. team has fought hard,
00:00:42.655 --> 00:00:44.623
but they've still got
nothing to show for it.
00:00:44.691 --> 00:00:45.783
This is a crucial game.
00:00:45.859 --> 00:00:47.349
If they don't beat
or tie the Swedes,
00:00:47.427 --> 00:00:50.863
it'll be very difficult to
advance to the medal round.
00:00:51.598 --> 00:00:53.691
Mcclanahan after the loose puck.
00:00:53.767 --> 00:00:55.325
He's hit hard by Soderstrom.
00:00:55.401 --> 00:00:57.013
- Go, go, go, Mac!
- Come on, Mac!
00:00:57.203 --> 00:01:00.366
Mcclanahan gutting it out
despite being injured.
00:01:00.044 --> 00:01:01.668
Silky!
Silky!
00:01:01.741 --> 00:01:03.834
Silk to Johnson.
Back to Silk.
00:01:03.091 --> 00:01:06.064
- Through the neutral zone.
- Attaboy, Mac!
00:01:07.001 --> 00:01:09.137
Dumped into the Swedish zone
00:01:09.215 --> 00:01:12.116

for it now.
00:01:14.788 --> 00:01:16.255
It goes out to Waltin.
00:01:16.322 --> 00:01:18.999
Ooh, he's hit hard
by Mcclanahan.
00:01:19.007 --> 00:01:21.999
- All right, Mac!
- Baker, you're up next.
00:01:21.001 --> 00:01:22.758
- What?
- Take the right side.
00:01:22.999 --> 00:01:26.663
The Swedes regain control.
1 :40 remaining in the game.
00:01:26.733 --> 00:01:28.086
Coneheads, you're up next.
00:01:28.935 --> 00:01:33.001

- Take it back, boys!
00:01:39.999 --> 00:01:40.443
Into the corner.
00:01:40.001 --> 00:01:41.001
Stay with him, Ramsey.
00:01:41.999 --> 00:01:44.998
- Watch the slot!
- Passes across to Ahlberg.
00:01:44.001 --> 00:01:46.914

Puck picked up by Suter,
moved ahead to Johnson.
00:01:52.999 --> 00:01:54.994
Switch them up!
Go, go!
00:01:54.016 --> 00:01:56.994
Johnson gets rid of it
and heads to the bench
00:01:56.001 --> 00:01:59.996
with just over a minute
and a half left to play.
00:01:59.999 --> 00:02:02.363
Precious seconds ticking away
for this U.S. team.
00:02:03.001 --> 00:02:04.634
What are you doing
with Baker out there?
00:02:04.999 --> 00:02:05.999
1 :20, Herb.
00:02:05.001 --> 00:02:07.602
Herb Brooks has molded
this unit.
00:02:07.001 --> 00:02:08.971
Seven months of training.
00:02:09.002 --> 00:02:12.239
Points to the net, just
a little over a minute left
00:02:12.001 --> 00:02:15.001
to avoid a very damaging loss.
00:02:15.215 --> 00:02:18.994

Jimmy, come on now!
00:02:28.999 --> 00:02:31.999
And Brooks is pulling goalie
Jim Craig for an extra skater.
00:02:31.464 --> 00:02:33.261
Go, go, go!
00:02:33.333 --> 00:02:34.999
45 seconds left to play.
00:02:34.999 --> 00:02:37.063
Sweden leading
the U.S. team 2-1.
00:02:37.001 --> 00:02:40.001

He moves in.
00:02:40.999 --> 00:02:43.999
His backhander is
stopped by Lindbergh.
00:02:43.209 --> 00:02:44.001
39 seconds remaining.
00:02:45.011 --> 00:02:46.739
Let's go, Baker!
00:02:46.999 --> 00:02:49.001
Schneider to Ramsey,
across to Baker.
00:02:49.215 --> 00:02:51.001
