The men's ice hockey tournament at the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, United States, was the 14th Olympic Championship. Twelve teams competed in the tournament, which was held from February 12 to 24, 1980. The United States won its second gold medal, including a win over the heavily favored Soviet Union that became known as the {{nowrap|"Miracle on Ice".{{cite news|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=KLYiAAAAIBAJ&sjid=DrUFAAAAIBAJ&pg=1056%2C1927138|newspaper=Beaver County Times |agency=(New York Daily News) |title=Debacle on ice: Lake Placid ghosts still haunt Soviets |last=Brown |first=Frank |date=February 11, 1990 |page=C14}}{{cite news|url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1123214/index.htm |archive-url=https://archive.today/20140215214309/http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1123214/index.htm |url-status=dead |archive-date=February 15, 2014 |magazine=Sports Illustrated |last=Swift |first=E.M. |title=The Golden Goal |date=March 3, 1980|page=16 }}}} {{nowrap|Games were}} held at the Olympic Fieldhouse (8,000) and the Olympic Arena (2,500).{{cite web|url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/winter/1980/ICH/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200417053609/https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/winter/1980/ICH/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=17 April 2020 |title=Ice Hockey at the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Games |work=Sports Reference |access-date=21 May 2019}}

Format

The IIHF ceased running a World championship in Olympic years. Nations that did not participate in the Lake Placid Olympics were invited to compete in the inaugural Thayer Tutt Trophy in Ljubljana, Yugoslavia.

Going into the games, the teams were ranked and divided into two groups. Teams were ranked based on performance during the 1979 World Ice Hockey Championships. Included were the eight teams in the 1979 top Championship Division (Pool "A") as well as the top four teams in the 1979, second-tier, "B" Pool tournament. While Poland finished 8th place in Pool A, the Netherlands, winners of Pool B, were ranked 8th while Poland was ranked 9th going into the Olympics. The total ranking was: Soviet Union (1), Czechoslovakia (2), Sweden (3), Canada (4), Finland (5), West Germany (6), United States (7), Netherlands (8), Poland (9), Romania (10), Norway (11), Japan (12). East Germany was originally ranked tenth, but declined to participate, with Japan filling their spot.

Overview

File:USA - Soviet Union 1980 match.jpg

The Soviet Union had won the gold medal in five of the six previous Winter Olympic Games, and were the favorites to win once more in Lake Placid. The team consisted primarily of professional players with significant experience in international play. By contrast, the United States' team—led by head coach Herb Brooks—consisted exclusively of amateur players, and was the youngest team in the tournament and in U.S. national team history. In the group stage, both the Soviet and U.S. teams were unbeaten; the U.S. achieved several notable results, including a 2–2 draw against Sweden, and a 7–3 upset victory over second-place favorites Czechoslovakia.{{cite journal|author=John Soares |title=Amateur vs. Professional in Cold War Hockey: A Consideration of Relative Skill Levels and Their Implications for Professional Hockey Today |journal=Notre Dame Journal of International & Comparative Law|year=2018 |volume=8 |issue=1 |url=https://scholarship.law.nd.edu/ndjicl/vol8/iss1/5/}}

For the first game in the medal round, the United States played the Soviets. Finishing the first period tied at 2–2, and the Soviets leading 3–2 following the second, the U.S. team scored two more goals to take their first lead during the third and final period, winning the game 4–3. Following the game, the U.S. went on to clinch the gold medal by beating Finland in their last game. The Soviet Union took the silver medal by beating Sweden.

The victory became one of the most iconic moments of the Games and in U.S. sports. Equally well-known was the television call of the final seconds of the game by Al Michaels for ABC, in which he declared: "Do you believe in miracles?! YES!" In 1999, Sports Illustrated named the "Miracle on Ice" the top sports moment of the 20th century.{{cite magazine |url= http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/features/cover/news/1999/12/02/awards/ |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20000903090546/http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/features/cover/news/1999/12/02/awards/ |url-status= dead |archive-date= September 3, 2000 |title= The 20th Century Awards: Sports Illustrated honors world's greatest athletes |magazine= Sports Illustrated |access-date= June 11, 2011 |date= December 3, 1999}} As part of its centennial celebration in 2008, the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) named the "Miracle on Ice" as the best international ice hockey story of the past 100 years.{{cite web |url= http://www.iihf.com/channels/iihf-world-championship/top-story-of-the-century.html |title= Top Story of the Century |publisher= International Ice Hockey Federation |access-date=April 4, 2010}}
