In the first game against Iceland, Julie “the Cat” Gaffney comes in after Goldberg gives up five goals and she immediately hits two Iceland players in the dicks and gets kicked out for “intent to injure.” But like two minutes later after Adam Banks jukes and finally scores a goal, the Iceland player literally breaks his stick across Banks’s forearm and fricks it up. But that players gets two minutes for “unsportsmanlike.”

What the frick? How is that referee even allowed to be in the tournament for that kind of bullshite call? How is slashing your stick and snapping it in two across someone’s arm ten seconds after he scores not trying to injure someone?

Also, it’s hilarious that after they lose one game to Iceland (universally considered the best team in the tournament) Don Tibbles is on Bombay’s arse about him being fricked over. It’s one game and one loss after they’ve dominated everybody else prior to that. One game and he’s ready to fire Bombay and send him packing.



We can make this an Overanalyze thread if y’all want. I’m down for that. Because don’t even get me started on why a team representing the fricking entire country has like 60% of its players coming from one singular shitty peewee league team.

Why the frick can’t Connie get a free puck off the boards with nobody around her? It’s literally a piece of rubber on ice, just.. slide it one way or the other…

Man, I watched this movie a 1,000 times as a kid. Definitely a childhood favorite.

The Bash Brothers were badass!

She hit them in the dicks. IN THE DICKS.

Should have been sent home.

Well it’s bad enough that she bitched to Bombay about never getting any playing time, which was legitimate since Goldberg was pure trash. But she was all “I left my team in Maine to show the world what I can do” and when she finally gets her chance and gets into the game a short time later, she literally breaks the rules and gets booted before playing even one official second of game time.

Not a good look on her for sure. And I bet her teammates from Maine were embarrassed and mad at her about it for dragging their team through the mud.

Bombay probably told the refs to kick Julie out since he clearly hated her. She was the best goalie in the country and he had her backing up Goldberg.

It’s egregious IMO. Goldberg is pure trash generally. He fixes up what, like 10-11 goals against Iceland in two games? You have to stop the bleeding at some point. Hell he didn’t even give Julie her shot until it was like 5-0 in their first game. And he holds her out until the very last shootout try?

I’m not familiar with hockey but every goal Goldberg gave up seemed like he wasn’t anywhere close to snagging them. Hell on most of them he was falling over and leaving the net wide open.

So this makes sense. Think about how much shite Tibbles would be catching at work for putting so much of Hendrix' money in a fricking peewee coach that's only won one district title. Coach Reilly had the greatest dynasty in sports history in the same district. He was right there for years if they needed a peewee league pitchman but they were ageist and wanted a young guy.
Tibbles is probably laughed out the industry if this blows up with Bombay. He would be panicking his arse off after they got blown out.

That’s a good point. Although you could argue that Reilly was past his prime and Gordon took the torch from him by winning that league with a shite team. With the supreme lack of talent (minus Jessie and Banks), it had to be coaching. So Bombay was the “hot name” in Minneapolis peewee hockey and was just coming home off injury so he was available.

I always assume these threads are going to be about how a team completely changed uniforms during an actual championship game and why that was somehow allowed

Not only did they throw the USA jerseys in the trash they were also Hendrix jerseys so Tibbles would still get fired because he let them take off the sponsored jerseys in the biggest moment of the biggest game.

Is this the one where Emilio shows up in the 2nd period after just being gone? The team’s tutor has to coach them? Then he comes in blowing a duck call. Okay, it’s cool, he’s here now. What purpose was served with those events?

Wearing the Ducks jerseys when they needed an extra boost was the kids version of Stallone turning around his ball cap in Over The Top.
