One of Baker's biggest moments in hockey didn't come in the NHL. No, it came in Lake Placid, scoring a tying goal against
Sweden that lead the Miracle On Ice team to start pool play with a 2-2 tie rather than a loss and a trend of that team coming
back in each and every game there after to win.
As a pro, Baker had a short-lived career that saw him make a stop with 4 different teams, including the Rockies.
After he finished his career with the New York Rangers, Baker went into dentistry, first attending Washington University Dental
School, then completed his residency at the University of Minnesota in 1993. With that, he started up his practice for oral and
maxillofacial surgery in Brainerd, Minnesota.
