The Sweater was always my favorite. Haven't seen it in years.

Anyone remember the story that they had Wayne Gretzky teaching Rob Lowe how to skate during Youngblood?

I wonder if they were the same people who hired Nolan Ryan to teach Ray Liotta how to play center field for Field of Dreams.

Was it called "He Shoots, He Scores"

I remember "He Shoots, He Scores" being really bad (and badly dubbed into English) but it was a Frenchy thing so there were boobies in it.

You're thinking of "He Shoots, He Scores." The team was the Nationals and they interspersed Nordiques game footage in it yet had a knockoff logo for the Nationales(?).

i read it as a book, never seen the movie. still have the book though, what a classic

"Lance et Compte" was an excellent series... a serious look at the world BEHIND hockey. "The Next Generation" when Pierre Lambert becomes a GM was just stupid.

Mallrats.....because they had Jason Lee playin NHL 94 for Sega Genesis in it. No, not a hockey movie, but a very cool hockey reference in a movie.

Along the same lines we can include Clerks purely for the wicked rooftop hockey game.

I love how Goldberg is soooo out of position on every opposing goal that he actually has time to dive and yell "Noooooo!!!" as the puck goes crosses the line. Or how when Gordon Bombay "sells out", he starts slicking his hair back and wearing suits. Then when he "comes back down to earth", the kids automatically can see he's back to normal before he even says anything because he's parting his hair in the middle again and wearing his Mighty Ducks jacket. Ohhh the hilarity...

I'm pretty sure there was. They were hockey playing alien ducks. They saved the world by winning hockey games.
