Ice Hockey is one of the pioneer sports in the Olympic program. It also managed to be included in a Summer Olympic program (back in 1920).
Its history is one of 3 countries: Canada, Russia/Soviet Union and United States. The early years were dominated by Canada and then the Soviet Union came along with its "pro" players (even though the European National Leagues were considered amateur, there's no doubt the USSR's top players could match NHL players who weren't elligible for the Olympics, as the 1972 Summit Series showed). During this dominate period for the USSR, 2 Olympics stand out: 1960 and 1980, both in the US, and both won by America. The 1980 conquest is known as the "Miracle on Ice" as a team of amateur Americans outplayed the Soviet stars to win the final and bring gold home.
The 1990s saw the first golds for Sweden and Czech Republic and the opening of the Olympic doors to NHL (pro) players (1998). Backed by a great goalie, Dominik Hasek, the Czech Republic shut down their opponents and soared to gold.
2002 saw the resurgence of Canada managed by the Great One Wayne Gretzky and Captained by Super Mario Lemieux, Canada's 2 biggest stars of the 80s and 90s.
