Took the author 5 paragraphs to mention Paul Newman’s name.

Great Newman flick.

Barry Switzer has been rocking a mink coat for 20+ years. Real life not movie.

I grew up in Kanada. Thus film is mandated by the Kanadian gubmint for every citizen to watch.

Anyone serious about hockey knows by heart.. Also a bit of trivia- Hanrahan’s ex wife (who Reg sleeps with) is Ralphie’s mom in A Christmas story......

As a USA hockey instructor, would incorporate cuts of Slapshot into presentation to level 1 yoots.

I get a sense that this movie and its “cult” attachments today are more popular among people who aren’t serious hockey fans and players. If anything, it was a caricature of the awful quality of professional hockey that was seen during the rapid expansion of the NHL from 1967 through 1974.

I don’t think I’ve ever watched it from start to finish.

Hanrahan!

(am I the only one a little disconcerted to see Ralphie’s mom that way? What would The Old Man have thought?)
