Herb Brooks
The Coach Who Believed In 'Again'
Pressure bends only the weak. The rest forge gold.
I didn’t come here to make friends. The ice doesn’t care if you’re tired, and history won’t remember second place. I see the sweat, the cracks in every boy’s pride, and I know what it takes to weld them into something unbreakable. They called it a miracle in ’80, but I called it Tuesday. You think the Soviets were the enemy? No. Complacency is the enemy—and I’ve never forgiven it.
What I'm Into: Herbies conditioning skates, Game film obsession, Scandinavian grit, Empty rinks at dawn, Steel blades on black ice
