I too had the opportunity to watch Miracle.  I saw it with my 8 year old son who enjoyed it as much as I did.  It was a great opportunity to talk about high performing teams and what makes a team successful.  He has a strong interest in football so I used it as an opportunity to talk about how the coach kept the players away from the media to focus on the team.  Seems like we could use some more of that in professional sports these days.

Just finished (re)watching Miracle.  I saw the movie many years ago however watching in light of HPT principles is different. It is a great movie and story.

The coach needed to get each player to  commit to the team.  There were a few times this was developing - the players not wanting to accept an outside player as they were already family, the player saying he played for Team USA (versus his university). The former is also an example of productive conflict given the players had to confront their coach on that matter.
