SLAPSHOT - THE MOVIE

[Shorthanded67 0]

Among the few hockey-related movies that are out, I'd call this a classic mainly because of the popularity and name-value. There's TONS of hockey players out there who've never heard of "Youngblood" or "Mystery, Alaska" (both good movies in my opinion). But the quotes from Slapshot will live on in infamy in every lockerroom around the country.

"Maybe we'll get chairs by the pool."

"How 'bout some snatch by the pool?"

[Chadd 916]

For full effect, this has to be said in your best Mo voice. "That's a very deep cut."

I like, "hold still, you're making me miss".

The Hanson brothers were all pretty good minor league players in their day. Only one was actually named Hanson in real life. The other two were actually brothers Jeff and ??? Carlson is their name.

Dave Hanson's son, Christian, is the leading scorer for Tri-City in the USHL. He's a 6'3" center and headed to Notre Dame next year.

I love that movie.

He looks like a big one: http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdispla...pid%5B%5D=73824

He'll have to fill out his frame a bit (6ft 3, but "only" 190?)

"F***** machine took my quarter"

That movie's a good one.

I'm a big fan of Slapshot. I'm 20 and have had it on video for a few years.

Plus the shock value of seeing the mom from "A Christmas story" as a lesbian was priceless.

Great Flick...if you haven't seen it (can't imagine anyone hasn't) pick up the DVD.

[Ogie Oglethorpe 14]

That's positively BRILLIANT! (oddly... I was checking IMDB.com when I saw your last post). Now that I make the connection, I can't NOT see that it's the same woman (Melinda Dillon)! (of course, I've seen Slapshot way more than Xmas Story)

BUT, that's damned funny!

[Petey21 1]

I've seen it several times, and some months ago I bought it on DVD as it's a "must have". A great classic movie!

I love the movie...and in the past year had the opportunity to play in a charity 3 on 3 tournament, where each team got a "celebrity" player. My team had Bernie Nicholls playing with us, but even more of a thrill, Paul D'Amato a.k.a. Tim "Dr Hook" McCracken was our coach. Paul was the nicest, most down to earth guy, and he told us stories about filming the movie. He wore his Syracuse Bulldogs jersey behind our bench. He is a real character, and still has long hair, and wears earrings.

saw it the first time in italian with my dad when i was really young. after that my sister took a vhs copy in canada many years ago, and i saw it many times. i don't know exactly how many, but i nearly memorized all the speech... fantastic. any other words are meaningless.

but the italian translation is crap, my brother is right! only in the english version is really funny.

In my best french accent...

"Icing appen when the puck come down, bang, before the udder guys, nobody there. My hand come up and play stop and den start up again."

"And you go sit in the box, two minute, by yourself, and you feel shame, but then you get free."
