🇸🇪 Sweden 5-3 Canada 🇨🇦
World Championship Final Round
Broadmoor World Arena, Colorado Springs 🇺🇸
Tuesday, 13 March 1962
There are sports events which reach mythological proportions over time for reasons which are somewhat difficult for a worldwide audience to fully appreciate. And there is no question that Sweden’s Gold medal victory at the 1962 World Championship in Colorado Springs would probably not have been perceived as such a huge achievement by Swedish fans had not the win for ever been linked with a play-by-play radio commentary by legendary announcer Lennart Hyland.
Tell the words “Den glider i màl” (“It slides into the net“) to a Swede and he will immediately refer to Hyland’s commentary of forward Nisse Nilsson’s empty-net goal that sealed Sweden’s 5-3 win over heavy favourite Canada at the Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The names might seem familiar, but the era was different and the game even more different from the 21st century we now live in. There was Legace and Tambellini, Martin, Jones, Smith, and Kromm, but their first names are from a time long removed: Mike Legace, Addy Tambellini, Seth Martin, Hal Jones, Harry Smith, and Bobby Kromm (who was also the coach) all played for Canada’s 1961 entry at the World Championships, the Trail Smoke Eaters.

Sunday, 28 February 1960
The Americans had no time to celebrate (their previous day’s victory over the Soviet Union) because they were scheduled to be on the ice at eight the next morning to face the Czechs for the Gold medal.
Organizers expected the Canada–Soviet Union game to be for the Gold, so the USA-Czech game was scheduled for early Sunday.

Olympic Medal Round
Blyth Memorial Ice Arena, Olympic Valley 🇺🇸
Saturday, 27 February 1960
There was no colour television coverage, no announcer using a catch-phrase like “Miracle on Ice,” no celebration of the extraordinary over and above a remarkable Gold medal. But make no mistake – when the United States won Olympic Gold in 1960 in Olympic Valley, California, it was a much greater miracle than the one that occurred in Lake Placid 20 years later.
In 1980, it was one game – a 4-3 win over the Soviet Union – that defined the American victory. In 1960, the U.S. had to defeat the top four teams in the world to win Gold.
