Hometown Heroes

[raidergrad72]

I'm not sure if this belongs on the high school forum, but did anyone watch the series on channel 5 about the 1980 Miracle on Ice hockey team?
It was a 4 parter & I though it was excellent, especially the 3/29/20 episode. Toward the end of that episode there was quite a touching tribute to Herb Brooks from former players & his family. I kind of teared up over that.
According to the players, Herbie seemed to be the sort of fellow you could turn to for advice & help even after your career with him was over. Herbie seemed to know what to say to help & those players carried advice from him forward to today to use in their own lives.
Not sure if there's a part 5 next Sun. or not. i don't thinks so but I'll be checking.
One player missing during the run down of the Mn. guys was Mark Pavelich. We all know what's going on with him & I hope & pray he gets the help he needs & can someday find the peace he's looking for.

Have a virus-free day!!

BSU Beaver,
My bad. The name of the show is Hometown Miracle. I looked at my DVR recordings this morning & this is the accurate name.
Sorry about that & apologies to the rest of the readers.

No problem at all Raider. I went and did a quick search on KSTP for Hometown Miracle and got nothing on that as well..... Oh well, maybe it will show up after a while.
