that game led to the gold medal game...





I don't remember exactly but I think all of four guys from that team made the NHL, and none had a big career doing so

  The only guys I can think of off hand that made the NHL were Jim Craig. Ken Morrow, Dave Christian and Neal Broten. Broten and Christian had decent careers.
