Long before the movie Goon and Miracle, this slapstick comedy about a group of Hockey players wanting to win a championship to help their little town became a surprise hit at the box office in the year of Star Wars Close Encounters and Saturday Night Fever. Slap Shot stars Paul Newman as the coach of a hockey team that also has the Hansen brothers. It spawned two sequels that were direct to video and has a memorable soundtrack. Unfortunately it's rated R but feels mroe like PG-13.
