What’s the Greatest Hockey Movie of All Time?

[8999]

What, no Love Guru? Easily the best film about the Maple Leafs.

Glad to see at least one person acknowledge Rob Blake's greatest achievement.

Slap Shot (including one of the best French traduction and certainly the most legendary one) is such a great movie.
Les Boys at the time would have been a good for your consideration, but like the first Good Cop, Bad Cop I am not sure if it aged well, Slap Shot did pass the test of time many time by now.

The French (Quebec) translation of Slapshot is hilarious and I find it personally better than the original English version which is also very good of course. It's iconic here in our province.

And although not a movie, the first couple seasons of Lance et Compte were also memorable.

 

[I am not exposed]

Voted Happy Gilmour as that is the best movie on the list.

Might Ducks is the better hockey movie though.

Didn't really care for Slapshot. Pretty average with just a couple of laughs.

 

[MakeTheGoalsLarger]

Les Boys 2

 

[Legionnaire]

Lmao I saw it on a few lists online and assumed it was a hockey movie, can a mod edit it out?

It's as much of a hockey movie as the cutting edge

 

[libertarian]

I am not a big fan of comedies or hockey movies but when I was young I loved Slap Shot, Airplane, and Caddy Shack.

So Slap Shot.

Happy Gilmore and Cutting edge are not hockey moves.

 

[Boreal01]

Red Army is an absolute masterpiece

 

[Rockomax]

The Rocket followed by Miracle imo. Slapshot is funny when you are 15, but ages terribly.

 

[RedWingzz]

I didn't vote Happy Gilmore, because that's a golf movie.

I like Miracle.

 

[Devil Dancer]

What, no Clerks?

 

[Voight]

Miracle is my favorite

This scene is still in my head to this day

 

[newfy]

Miracle is an american propaganda film, tough to watch

 

[405Entrance]

Slap shot is really dated, I liked goon and mighty ducks 2

If you didn't vote for Slapshot then go spend....

Then you get free.

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

I voted for Miracle, since it gets all the praise from what I remember. I also really liked it. My favourite is probably D2 tho.

Mystery, Alaska was f***in' weird, man. Hank Azaria's character gets piss drunk and DUIs a zamboni in that movie.

 

[HugeInTheShire]

Slap Shot is by far the best hockey movie ever made, yes it's dated but it's still amazing!
at least once every couple days at my workplace someone quotes this movie
we are constantly putting on the foil or feeling shame

 

[Bruinaura]

Miracle is my favorite. The picture of Brooks at the end credits with "He never saw this movie. He lived it" gets me every time

 

[Fataldogg]

I always viewed Happy Gilmore as a golf movie.

 

[Perfect_Drug]

That Mighty Ducks gamechangers series is awesome!


But for an actual hockey documentary, Red Army is amazing.

 

[EdJovanovski]

And for the first time in my life I’m using the term AINEC

Oh shit I forgot about this one LMAO this was more my day than Mighty Ducks, Mighty Ducks was long before I was born. I've played in one of the arenas it was filmed in

 

[thadd]

As I kid I thought Mighty Ducks was the best and as I got older I came to appreciate Slap Shot a lot more.
When Miracle came out it was my favorite.... but The Rocket. Damn that was an awesome film.
If Mighty Ducks didn't have any sequels I think it would have aged better for me.

 

[BraveCanadian]

I think it has to be Slapshot even though it is quite dated now. Honorable mention for Liev absolutely killing it in Goon (bit of language in there):



Makes a great avatar.

 

[Gurglesons]

Slapshot.

 

[GOALOFSSON]

Goon was great
