For the first time since 2014, NHL players are back at the Olympics, promising star-studded affairs as pro ice hockey players compete for gold. Speaking of gold, it's a prize the American men haven't won in Olympic ice hockey since 1980, when a group of college kids and longshot pros became the stuff of legend with an improbable defeat of the mighty Soviets.
On Friday, the group of Americans tasked with ending a 46-year gold drought was revealed during an episode of NBC's The Today Show.
