President Donald Trump signed legislation on Friday that honors the 1980 United States Olympic hockey team, which overcame the heavily favored Soviet Union before going on to win the gold medal game.
Team captain Mike Eruzione, who scored the iconic game-winning goal against the Soviets in the high-stakes semi-finals game, goalie Jim Craig, and many other members of the “Miracle on Ice” joined Trump in the Oval Office, where he signed the H.R. 452, the Miracle on Ice Bill. The Soviets had taken gold in the previous four Olympics.

“We’re delighted to be joined today by true legends of American sports history and heroes for the entire nation, the 1980 U.S. Olympic ice hockey team,” Trump said. “This was one of the biggest moments that I’ve ever seen in sports, and I like sports.”
