    I'll say this for D2, though. It's Citizen Kane compared to D3.
    Oh D2 is bad, but it’s hilarious bad. Iceland, knuckle puck, “you look like you just got out of the shower” Bombay, “let’s go shake their hand” Gunner Stahl, all terrible outside of Julie “The Cat” (who should’ve started!) but it’s glorious to this Millennial. It’s not the Roadhouse of hockey movies (that would be Youngblood) but it has its place as a hilarious, cheesy hockey movie.

    D3 is just an abomination.

      D2 is one of those movies that you just have to take at face value because if you scrutinize it at any depth it all falls apart.

      Iceland didn’t even play international hockey until 1999, but it does make a good name for a foe. Trinidad and Tobago? Someone must’ve really wanted an excuse to get steel drums into the movie.

      Charlie somehow getting mad they have to wear USA gear rather than their Ducks stuff at an international competition. It’s not like it’s just the Ducks team, they added like seven people. It would’ve been like Jordan and Pippen saying they should wear Bulls jerseys in ‘92 for the Dream Team.

      Goalie removes his mask during play? And it turns out he actually changed uniforms with another player? All good according to whatever rule book these guys are using, apparently.

      On the plus side, I believe it’s the only instance of major penalties being called in the entire series. The refs in D1 and D3 really didn’t like calling anything more than a minor.

        Kids in South Central LA inexplicably playing roller hockey? A player coming off the bench to lasso someone getting two minutes? Yeah, the premise behind anything in the movie is flimsy at best. And that’s what makes it so hilarious.

        TSN’s Bardown has a breakdown of every bad or missed called in the movie.

          Meh. I can Google Image that and not watch whatever dreck Di$ney decided to greenlight so Emilio could pretend people still know who he is.

          And none of the Ducks movies make any sense if you just break them down. My roomie and I once stayed up until like 4am watching the original and pointing out everything wrong with it. Made me love it more ;^)

            As someone who grew up in a non-hockey area, I loved it, probably because I could not pick out all of the holes in it. (Also I was like 9 years old.) I was very disappointed as an adult to find out Iceland was not in fact a hockey superpower. I also loved the original NHL team's name and logo, not the lame one now, which I think puts me among the minority here.

                Yes. It was a horrific McMansion.

                I'll see if I can find it. It was that bad. They were very proud of it.

                Edit: This is close. Imagine how low your SATs have to be to live in this.

                  Emilio chose to go independent and focus on philanthropy about 20 some years ago. Not saying he's an acting chief but he is nothing like his brother. In fact because he made that choice he said no to this film at least once I don't fault him nor begrudge him in the least.

                  Again this movie may end up being terrible but whatever.

                            Is it still on WWE's streaming app?

                            Interesting that NBC had it.
