- Mm-hmm. Go, Coach.

I don't want any

""C'' players on my team.

I want B's or better or you're

gonna be riding the pine pony.

Now you got 1 5 minutes after each

practice to clear this locker room.

You got homework to do.

Oh, one more thing.

Stay clear of the varsity until we play

'em in thej. V.-Varsity Showdown.

You got that ?

Mm-hmm.

- [ Slams Door]

- [ Grunts ]

Fifteen minutes ?

Man, I cannot move.

Hey, you guys, look.

He posted our positions.

I don't believe this.

I play left side not right.

Third line !

Man, that's a major diss.

- I'm not even posted.

- Yeah, you are.

Adam Banks,

third line, center.

- Varsity ?

- I made varsity ?

[ Goldberg ] That's the great thing

about being goalie,you know?

You always know where you stand.

I just mind my business, take

my place between the pipes.

[ Chuckling ]

You're riding the pine pony, pal.

[ Laughing ]

Very funny.

julie's one.

You're two.

I'm backup ?

How can he

do this to me ?

- What am I, chopped liver ?

- Hey...

who-who's Captain Tibid?

Oh, that's Captain T.B.D.

To be determined.

Oh. Oh, I see.

Well, no, I don't.

That's your job, Charlie.

- [ Norwegian ]

- [ Buzzing ]

[ Buzzing, Music Continue ]

[ Buzzing ]

- School was not so fun

today, eh, Charlie ?

- How'd you know it was me ?

Hmm, only two people

can open a door so sadly:

you and Gordon.

Now just one more pass.

[ Gasps, Groans ]

I've really done it this time, Charlie !

[ Groaning ]

Get me a tourniquet, eh ?

- [ Continues Groaning ]

- Knock it off, Hans.

Wipe off the catsup,

and stop trying to cheer me up.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ] School is a nightmare,

especially our new hockey coach.

Have you ever heard

ofTed Orion ?

Yes. Yes, h-he left the North Stars

when he was still in his prime.

- This guy is no Duck.

- Perhaps you should

show him the way, Charlie.

[ Chuckles ] He doesn't exactly seem

open to new learning experiences.

The question is, are you ?

So what if she has a quicker glove.

Who's got the better stick ?

- You do, Goldberg.

- I know that. And who's

got the game experience,

- me or the Catlady ?

- You do.

- Mm-hmm.

- Well, she's just quicker, uh, faster.

- That counts on this level.

- So what are you trying to say ?

If I lost a few pounds,

maybe I'd be number one again ?

It might be easier

to have her gain a few pounds.

[ Cole ] Hey, little man,yesterday's

lunch was pretty good.

What have we got today?

- Bag of chips.

- Oh. Hey.

And some cookies.

What do we have here ?

-Just give it back.

- A sandwich. Get outta here.

- Yeah.

- [ Others Chattering, Laughing ]

I could maim

that big goon.

But with Portman here,

we could take 'em all.

They want lunch...

we'll give 'em lunch.

Let's go, boys.

- Uh, this seat is taken.

- No one's sitting in it.

Well, this is

a cheerleading section.

Warrior cheerleaders only.

- Are you a cheerleader ?

- Do I look like an idiot ?

Airhead.

- How ya doin' ?

- Uh, the freshman girls are over there.

Girls. Yes, I know.

I'm in search of a real woman.

- You're crazy, you know that ?

- Loco.

Yes, of course.

For you.

just give me five minutes after school,

and I will die a happy man.

If you don't beat it,

you probably will die.

My boyfriend

gets pretty jealous.

Make sure it's fresh.

- Steam's a good sign.

- Very good.

just want to congratulate you

on being number one.

I didn't have time to bake a cake so

I bought you a yummy array of goodies.

- Thanks, Goldberg.

- Hey, no problem.

You know, you're gonna need a lot

of energy to play on this level.

Carbo loading, you know ?

See--

See, this thing right here

is packed with energy.

Give it a shot.

- See ?

- Mmm.

- Good, huh ?

- It's good.

Now, uh, I could even be

your, uh, nutritional advisor

if you want. No charge.

- Hmm.

- What do you say ?

- [julie ] Great.

- [ Goldberg ] Try this one.

-Oh, come on, my mommy made me brownies.

-Yeah.

- Fresh, warm ones.

- Hey, it's too bad

about your Bash Brother.

- Heard he was too scared to leave home.

- Portman ain't scared of nothin'.

[ Horse Whinnies ]

Phew !

- What the hell kind

of brownies are these ?

- I gotta tell her...

to stop using the horse

turds in the recipe.

[ Riley ]

Get 'em !

[ Screaming ]

Thanks for not

letting me sit there.

[ Laughing, Chattering ]

[ Screaming ]

[ Varsity Shouting ]

Let's get 'em ! Come on !

- [ Brakes Squealing ]

- Dean.

- Fellas.

- Dean, nice tie.

- Lovely day.

Good boys.

[ Gasping ]

[ Students Clamoring ]

[ Students Hooting, Running ]

[ Whistle Blowing ]

[ Orion Shouting ]

Work those legs, Gaffney!

- Where's your energy ?

- I think I'm gonna be sick.

[ Vomiting ]

[ Chuckling ]

One cupcake over the line, Catlady.

This is total crap.

I can't play for this drill sergeant.

- Play for us, Charlie.

The Ducks. Come on, man.

- All right, Fulton.

Get low, bend your knees,

smooth strokes.

- [ Continues Vomiting ]

- That's it, Fulton. Stay low.

julie the Cat !

What's the matter, you eat a fur ball ?

[ Laughing ] Yeah, that's good, Coach.

I like that. Fur ball.

- That's, uh, very clever.

-Just get in the net, Goldberg.

- Me ? Sure thing. Be my pleasure.

- [ Russ ] Yeah!

- Over here, over here.

- You know, I don't see

a captain out here !

On your left.

Pass it.

Make him make

the first move, Conway!

- Hey, Averman, you got nothing !

- [ Dwayne ] Over here, Charlie!

Come on, Charlie, clear it out !

Clear it out !

Freeze !

I said freeze !

- Averman!

- I did freeze.

Where's the one place you

never want to clear the puck ?

- It looked open.

-Just answer the question, Conway.

Listen, I'm not a defenseman,

I'm a scorer !

[ Panting ]

Follow me.

Anybody share his opinion ?

All right then,

take a knee.

What's the one thing all

great teams have in common ?

- Great coaching.

- Don't try to suck up to me, Averman.

Defense.

See, unlike scoring,

defense never quits.

But to play great defense,

you need one thing above all else.

Bet it starts

with a ""W.''

Confidence.

Listen, if you learn nothing

else when you're here, you learn this.

All right ? 'Cause

it's not just about hockey.

It's easy to be confident

when you have control of the puck.

It's very, very difficult

to keep that confidence...

when you gotta take whatever

strange bounces life throws your way.

Don't be careless,

but don't be too careful either.

You cannot be afraid

to lose.

That's how you gain the confidence

to attack the game...

when the puck

isn't yours.

That's how you attack life,

even when you think

you don't have any control.

And that's how

you play real defense.

Is this seat taken ?

[ Laughs ]

You know, you are just like

the rest of those snobs.

I am not a snob.

Oh, really ? Well, you don't like me

because I'm an athlete.

That's a snob.

You don't even know me.

If I knew you,

I wouldn't like you.

Oh, yeah ?

Well, try me.

Hi, I'm Charlie Conway.

I'm a 1 4-year-old,

almost six-foot, nonsmoking Leo.
