    • My earliest hockey memory is the Miracle on Ice...I was too young to understand the amazing feat it was, and I wouldn't really follow hockey till 12 years later (not the sport of choice in my locale!), but it impressed me all the same! It has to be one of, if not THE, greatest moments in sports of all time.
