Hockey Movie Sunday Week 1

It doesn’t really seem fitting to start anywhere but here so this week’s movie selection is: Disney’s The Mighty Ducks.  Outside of Slap Shot, this is probably one of the most beloved hockey movies of all time.  And let’s face it, a successful hockey franchise was birthed out of it so that’s got to count for something, right?

I have this (and the two subsequent movies) on DVD but it is also available on Netflix Instant if you don’t have as expansive of a DVD collection as I do.

So take a little time out on Sunday and rewatch or watch it for the very first time.  Honestly, if you are a hockey fan and watching this movie for the first time, shame on you!  We’ll (read: all 8 of you reading) reconvene on Monday for a short recap and some discussion of our favorite scenes/quotes.  

For now, I'll leave you with the Gordon Bombay "History Will Be Made" parody that surfaced during the playoffs this year.  It still makes me laugh a little every time.
