Anyone else notice that the three featured players have last names that are finnish, russian and russian respectively.

Granted they are from Alberta, but its all about the blood!

It should show you how happy you SHOULD be regarding the success of a fellow Falcon.

DRoss skating for the Falcons in the 70's and had some time in the record books if memory serves.

Now see, having been years from being born during that time period, I had no idea he was a previous player/student/coach at BGSU. Never mind my previous post. Hopefully he help UAH do well in the NCAA tournament.

Ew. My post had an edge to it. My apologies, 24. I meant to be an educator and not a snit.

I'm socked with the gastro-intestinal virus lovingly bestowed upon me by my wife and daughter. Being out of the office for the past week coupled with this causes me to slip further and further behind in my work duties. I can only plead insanity. I'm a touch more pragmatic now that I've arisen from a 3.5 hour nap - as we all would.

Anyhoo, yeah, DRoss was a dynamite winger for the Falcons back in the 70's (75/76?). There are only a few members of this board who saw him play. I would love to hear some stories.

Yea ross was rocken rocket of winger, the guy could move. But that is all i remember.

I was poking around and on a separate note..sorry found this interesting from the 79 -80 season...look how we played the US team 3 times ....and how we beat them...I have to wonder how this could have been omitted from the movie...i know they played lots of games against lots of teams, but dam we should have gotten a bit int he movie....lol that polish was team sure colorful.

ah the return to glory next season will be great...read it catch the feeling.

U.S. International is different from the "U.S. National Team", I believe they're a college in San Diego.

A lot was omitted from Miracle, MACMAN.

That team wasn't just thrown together as the movie suggests. Quite a few of the gents played with Herb for about a year and a half and tourned that entire time. I believe our own Rob McClanahan played with Brooks since the beginning.
