Everyone's talking about avery, but Vinny Lecavelier played Jean Beliveau, and mike ricci also cameo'd (as dickie moore I think ). Also patrick roy gets a producer credit.

Netflix also have it on instantview, so you can just hook a HDMI/S-video cable from your computer to your TV and get it immediately.

Or if you have netflix and a 360 you can watch it on that as well.

Holy flyin' f*ck! Just saw the trailer. "I DON'T WANT TO SEE MAURICE RICHARD TONIGHT! I WANT TO SEE THE ROCKET!"

I read a few reviews when this came out, but couldn't catch it for sched reasons, plus the fact that it came and went in the States very quickly. I had no idea it was such a big-budget flick. To recreate a hockey game in the 50's or 60's is a big f*ckin' deal. Obviously a lot went into this flick.

Will Netflix it asap.

I loved it. I could never criticize a movie that you can rewind to see Avery get a beating!!!

Beautiful! Thanks for the tip!

Watched it again last night and it got me wondering.

Is there any actual footage of the on ice incident with the Bruins when Maurice punched the ref?

I'm just wondering how accurate the movie is.

Have the movie dubbed over from the french version. Got it for Christmas and it's probably my 5th favorite movie of all time.

Love the part when he punches the ref and goes after avery in the box.

Is it true that he switched to number 9 because his baby daughter weighed 9 pounds?
