The film <span class=“Italics”>Miracle</span> and the HBO documentary entitled <span class=“Italics”>Do You Believe In Miracles?</span> are nice ways to relive the excitement of this event. Unfortunately, neither DVD release includes the broadcast of the complete game vs. USSR as a bonus.

ESPN Classic has shown this game in the past. Has anyone captured it? Also, the final game vs. Finland would be nice to have, too.

And please don’t refer me to hdhockey.tv. This is an illegitimate operation and from what I’ve read is not to be trusted.

If you have any information for me, PM me please!

Maybe it will come to dvd eventually. Some college football bowl games are on dvd. There's a few set of pro teams collections which include a few classic games. This year, all world series games were available individually and could be downloaded too. The problem is, these dvd's often don't have that great of compression. At 3 or so hours, many sporting events even without commercials are longer than most movies. And films of that length are often split onto 2 discs. So maybe it will be more viable with blu-ray. I hope so as I would love to see sports telecasts catch on like home video for movies.

Take back the trilogy. Execute Order '77
