sunkzaue · 8 years, 7 months ago
ARLINGTON, Va. -- It's impo sible to mention American Olympic hockey without falling here we are at the Miracle on Ice. That' Dustin McGowan Jersey s a ble sing as well as a curse; great as being the moment was, it has been 33 years, and then the story has long been told backward, forward, backward again and sideways. So, if somebody actually tells a brand story based on the 1980 Games, it's just a nice change of pace. Thatrrrs what Team USA gm David Poile provided Monday on the national team's orientation camp. Poile, the moment, was the a sistant general manager for the Atlanta Flames. The team had drafted goaltender Jim Craig couple of years before and, truth be told, didn't think your highly of him. "Very average," Poile said. Then came the Olympics; Craig stopped 36 of 39 against Ru sia, finished a job against Finland, draped himself during the flag, became a symbol of yank sport -- so, yes, things changed. "We probably would've signed him. We weren't even sure. They win the gold medal, Christian Yelich Jersey of course, we signed him," Poile said that has a laugh. The Olympics ended even on a Sunday. Craig was really a Flame by way of middle of the week. He is at Atlanta by Friday. And whenever he touched down, he is at bad shape. Poile: "He basically stumbles heli-copter flight plane. I believe he's drunk, or whatever. He basically grabs me and said, 'It's strep throat. I never slept in four days,' because they'd been in the White House and everywhere else. Therefore we make sure he can bed. Next morning we practice - Marcell Ozuna Jersey - new he's been on the ice considering that the Olympics. After practice, he delivers the crucial for the city, this all stuff, blah blah blah. This really is on Friday. "(On Saturday), we play him against the Colorado Rockies. Go the building, which -- we never sold out in Atlanta. Our players are blocking shots all around us. We win the video game 4-1 (with Craig saving 24 of 25 shots). He is doing this Coke commercial, when using the flag draped around Dee Gordon Jersey him, 'where's dad,' entire body stuff. Each of the guys are happy simply because get compensated, nobody leaves the dre sing room until like 1 o'clock early in the day." The next morning, Poile had a call from an editor at Sports Illustrated, who'd planned to put Craig on that week's cover but been waylaid by malfunctioning strobe lights from the Omni. So, they have to get by. "If weight reduction Jim Craig over the cover of Sports Illustrated, we will need to take a picture of him," Poile said. By 9 a.m., both sides -- "Craig, who'd probably just reached bed" -- were back for the arena. "Put on his uniform, sat on his stall, sprayed his face with water -- employing picture that's on your cover of Sports Illustrated," Poile said. Craig began to experiment with 29 more games inside the NHL and it was right out of the league by age 26. But he's still got that SI cover, Andre Dawson Jersey the gold medal and, hopefully, some more stories we haven't heard.
