As they kick off their season against a rival team from Stonewood, the local Dog River hockey team finds itself at a crossroads. Brent is a great goalie and is being taken for granted by his teammates, so when an offer from the rival team comes his way, he has to seriously consider his options. Meanwhile the other players are having trouble scoring and might need to take some advice from an unlikely hockey expert. Then team super-fan Emma learns the hard way that you should never mix cars, your husband and a hammer on game night.moreless

    • TRIVIA (1)

      ADD TRIVIA
      • Lacey tells Brent about a theory that putting a frog in boiling water will kill it, but putting it in tepid water then raising the temperature slowly will make the water boil but the frog will live. The correct theory is that dropping a frog in boiling water will cause it to try to jump out, but if you put it in tepid water and raise the temperature slowly it will just sit there until it boils to death—it certainly does not survive. (This happens because the change is too gradual, so the frog does not notice the danger.)

      • Wanda: Early in the second period, it's all Saints so far. Dogs are playing like my grandma, only less physical.

      • Oscar: Where's Brent? Emma: Do you have any fresh bread? Oscar: Who's minding the pumps? Wanda: At the Ruby, not until two, and nobody at the moment. Oscar: He just leaves the pumps? Somebody could rob the place blind! They could steal a squeegee! Wanda: They're rigged with explosives.

      • Brent: I love the way you call games. What is it you call a goal again? Wanda: Twine-tickler! Brent: Offsides? Wanda: Premature! Brent: Somebody elbows somebody in the mouth? Wanda: Bender in the beer hole! Brent: I make a great save? Wanda: That's never come up!

      • Ronnie: I was speaking metaphorically. Hank: Why don't you speak leave-aphorically? Brent: Scram-aphorically. Hank: Piss-off-aphorically. Ronnie: What are you guys, like seven? Hank and Brent (in mocking voices): What are you guys, like seven?

      • Ronnie: Celebrating a bit much for a tie, aren't we, boys? Davis: You're just mad because you didn't beat us. Hank: Yeah, you poor tie-ers! Brent: Sleep well knowing you don't suck any less than we do!

      • Emma: If we get in this car, and it doesn't start, I swear by all that is holy, I will throttle you with an extension cord. Oscar: Deal. But if it does start, you have to shut up about it. Emma: Done. (Oscar starts the car, succesfully) Emma: You're my hero, now let's go. Oscar: Oh, that's right. It's almost... shut up o'clock.

      • Davis (during a time-out) : Great hustle. Has anyone seen my pancreas?

      • Lacey: The team meeting started without you. Brent: Some brilliant strategizing going on, no doubt. Lacey: Well, you missed the ten-minute argument about how much a puck weighs.

      • Hank: Well, practicing's good in theory, in reality it just tires us out.

      • Lacey: No neutral zone trap for you guys, huh? Brent: Well, our defenceman can't skate backwards, that's the crux of it.

      • Brent (leading the team onto the ice): Play sharp, Lloyd. Lookin' good, Davis. Lose the smoke, Frank.
