• Herb Brooks : I got a telegram from a lady in Texas today, and you know what it said?

  Patty Brooks : What?

  Herb Brooks : Beat those Commie bastards. We're playing a hockey game against the greatest team in the world, and they're the best that's ever played this game. Why can't we just leave it at that?

  Patty Brooks : Because this is more than a hockey game to a lot of people.

  Herb Brooks : Yeah and I keep running through them all. Johnson on Mikhailov. Broten on Petrov. Pav against whoever OV. We just... We don't match up, Patti.

  Patty Brooks : You might want to skip that when you talk to the boys tomorrow.

• Patty Brooks : Herb, there's no disgrace in losing to this team.

  Herb Brooks : Yeah, I know.

  Patty Brooks : The important thing is, you got this far.

  Herb Brooks : The important thing?

  [pause] 

  Herb Brooks : The important thing is that those twenty boys know in twenty years, they didn't leave anything on the table. They played their hearts out. That's the important thing.
