I remember the Red Army team played at the big, bad Montreal Canadiens in '76, when the Canadiens only lost 8 regular season games that season out of 80. The Canadiens had like 7 or 8 HoFers on that team. The Canadiens dominated the game, outshooting the "Red Army team" 39-13, but the score ended 3-3. The broadcasters were stunned. One of them commented that Tretiak was the only reason why that happened. He dominated international hockey for a long time.

He was absolutely right. The USA team attacked them from the get-go, and the Soviets didn't expect that. It would have only worked once, before they adjusted to someone approaching them that way, but they only needed it to work once. They'd killed the US in an exhibition before the Olympics, where the US team didn't show its hand, and they never expected Brooks to face them in the Olympics and try to beat them at their own game. Sometimes audacity pays off...

First of all the NHL teams had no interest in playing the Soviets it was during the season and they did want to risk injury or tire themselves for the NHL season. Second of all the Flyers not only beat them but just about made the Russians "cry" with their "rough and tumble" tactics. They could not contend with that type of physical play. Third it was said by NHL experts that the Russians would be barely a .500 team playing the 80 NHL regular season with smaller and narrow rinks limiting their speed advantage and more physical NHL play. They were a great open ice team but the ice in the NHL especially back then was NOT so wide open and you paid with physical body checks.

Most of the players were thrown off right then and there at the start of the 2nd period.

Fluke? Far from it. Herb knee how to push every button on his selection of players. He knew how hard he could push each one of them and he broke them down and built them back up. The 30 for 30 on ESPN that covered the Soviet side of this game, the players admitted that they were shocked after the shellacking USA took a week before that they were out there skating the way they were. We were so we'll conditioned that as the 3rd period goes on, especially the last 3 to 4 minutes, you can see the Soviets were gradually slowing down and the Americans were wearing them down. That never happens. The team that never quit won that game and that, besides the obvious outcome as the reason, was us because of what we did in the end of the first. One last desperation dump in, a careless deflection by Tretiak thinking the period was over and the Americans wouldnt make any attempt and Johnson scoring because the Soviet defense got caught with their pants down and we tied it up. Complacency in the end of the 1st gave us life. Hardly a fluke the Americans outworked, outskated and outhustled the best team possibly in hockey history.
