The death of Mark Pavelich, one of the standout players on the "Miracle on Ice" team, has been ruled a suicide by authorities.
The Midwest Medical Examiner’s Office in Anoka County announced Monday that Pavelich died of asphyxia due to a plastic bag over head on March 4. Pavelich's death was reported early last month, with the cause of death unknown.
Pavelich is the second member of the "Miracle on Ice" team to die, following the death of Bob Suter in 2014.
