[During an intermission break in the US-Sweden game]
Herb Brooks: This is unbelievable. You guys are playing like this is some throw away game up in Rochester. Who we playing Rammer?
Mike Ramsey: Sweden.
Brooks: Yeah. You're damn [topples a refreshments table] right Sweden! In the Olympics! [Turns to McClanahan] What the hell is wrong with you? Put your gear on! I said put your gear on! Who do you play for?
McClanahan: Doc told me I can't play.
Brooks: Yeah, yeah, yeah I know. You got a bad bruise. You know what, put your street clothes on because I got no time for quitters!
Mike Eruzione: Come on Herb! Nobody is quitting here!
Brooks: You worry about your own game. Plenty there to keep you busy. [to McClanahan] A bruise on the leg is a hell of a long way from the heart, [mutters as he walks away] candy ass.
McClanahan: What'd you call me?
Brooks: You heard me!
McClanahan: You want me to play huh? Is that what you want? [rushes Brooks]
Brooks: I want you to be a hockey player!!
McClanahan: I AM A HOCKEY PLAYER! YOU WANT ME TO PLAY ON ONE LEG? HUH? I'LL PLAY ON ONE LEG!
Brooks: [walking out of the locker room with McClanahan still screaming] That'll get him going.
Craig Patrick: Oh yeah. I'll clean up!
McClanahan: [as other players calm him down] GET OFF ME! THERE, WOULD THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY, HUH HERB?!?! I AM A HOCKEY PLAYER!!!!
