If you are good enough and fortunate enough to get to a high level, you might explore NCAA opportunities, you might choose major junior or you might be Auston Matthews and head for Switzerland. Following the Miracle on Ice on February 22, 1980 in which the United States upset the USSR at the Winter Olympics, the number of American-born players entering the Ontario Hockey League and being drafted by OHL teams began to increase significantly.
