It’s hard to believe but it’s been 40 years since the miracle on ice when the US Olympic hockey team, then amateur college players, beat the mighty Soviet union for the gold medal in Lake Placid New York. There is a new book out called The Making of a miracle: the untold story of the captain of the 1980 gold medal winning US Olympic team. It is written by the captain of the team, Mike Eruzione along with Neil Boudet.
And Mike Eruzione – one of the fun guys to be around -- is with us.
He also explains he wrote the book for his grandkids so they would know he was more than just the captain of that great team.
