Paul Henderson's goal sealed a remarkable comeback victory over a Soviet squad that had pushed Canada to the brink of defeat. Of course, none of this was supposed to happen. Team Canada was composed of the NHL's greatest stars, and were expected to easily defeat their communist counterparts. The success of the Soviets stunned Canadians, who had always unquestioningly believed in their country's hockey supremacy.

Your NHL superstars comeback win over a team they were supposed to beat < Team USA comprised of scrubs who played college hockey

I think Nyck was pointing out that this was a true underdog story. That is why it was a grat sports moment. Not to mention that tentions with the Soviet Union were extremely high at that time which made it sweeter.
