"(Adults chuckling)" " When?" " June 9 to 12." " Um, as I recall, I think you're busy that week." "I know K.P. is." " It's the only ice-time available." " Well, it really doesn't matter, 'cause we really don't have the budget for that kind of thing." " What if I found the money." "Would you let it happen?" " We can't ask for more dues, and you can't raise that kind of money yourself." " What if I did?" "What if I got the money, did all the work?" "Would you allow the tournament?" " Jordy, nobody's saying this isn't an admirable idea." "All right?" "It is." "It's just not practical." "So, moving on..." " I'm sorry, I didn't hear the answer to his question." "Hypothetically speaking, if he did all that, raise the money, did the work, book the ice—" " Neil, it's not going to happen, all right?" "Come on!" "Especially not that week!" " Hypothetically." " Yes." "Hypothetically, yeah, it could happen, all right?" "Now, moving on." " Thanks, Dad." " Good job." " Hey, Mike!" " Yeah?" " Mike, the Bruins and the Leafs are on." "You gonna watch?" " Uh, in a bit." " Honey, go watch some hockey with your dad." "Supper's going to be another hour." " Chris!" "Hey!" " Ma!" " Welcome home!" "Let me look at you!" " What are you doing here?" "They throw you out?" " Yeah, they said I eat too much." " So you on leave?" " Yeah, they sent us home for a few days before they ship us out." "(Hockey on TV)" " He thawed out some casseroles." "Oh, and I went to the Minor Hockey Board Association meeting tonight." "Uh, it's a surprise." "I'll tell you if it works out." "Yeah, Dad was there too." "He's good, I guess." "He invited a friend over last night." "I think her name was Brandy." "By the way, what's an exotic dancer?" "Kidding!" "I was kidding!" "Stop!" "I miss you too." " Here you go." "What are you doing?" " Trying to figure out who the Minister of Tourism and Parks is." " Joan MacAlpine." "Why?" " I was going to ask the government for the money for the tournament." " You made a budget?" " Uh-huh." " $300 for sports drinks and chocolate bars." " Well, I don't know." "They shouldn't have to pay for anything." " You are the strangest kid." " Whatever." " You know what this means if it happens, right?" "If pro hockey was anywhere in the back of your mind, you can't afford to miss this assessment camp." "You know that, right?" "You missed a few categories." " Like what?" " Skittles." "Insurance, hotel rooms..." "Has it ever occurred to you, they may not want to come back?" " They'll come." " How do you know?" " Someone just has to go first, is all." "Someone just has to say they're sorry." " It may not be that simple." " Don't know if you don't try." " I got supplier meetings all day, but maybe after school, I'll pick you up, we'll see if we can talk to the minister." "Now eat your breakfast." " And you burned the toast again." " I like it this way." " Yeah, right." " This is a pretty ambitious plan." " Thank you." " By the word ambitious," "I mean expensive." "If my department makes a special grant to one peewee hockey team, where does it end?" " But this isn't just about hockey." "It was on TV in the States about how bad Canada treated those kids." "In Social, we learned that New England is New Brunswick's biggest trading partner." " In Social?" " I did an assignment on the different commodities, if you want to see it." " No, but thank you." " It has graphs and everything." " This isn't just regional, there's bad relations between Washington and Ottawa because of the whole not-going-to-Iraq thing." " You didn't tell me you were from Foreign Affairs." "I'm Tourism and Parks." "Sorry, but the answer is no." "Nice try, though." " Cam Neely can't put it in!" "Oh!" "Cam Neely puts it home!" " So I hear you got smoked in Montreal." " Yeah." "That place sucks." " What, the whole country?" " Yeah." "They're idiots." " Nice talk." " Yes!" "You nervous about shipping out?" " Yeah." "A little." "My training's so good though." "It's going to be OK." "What I want to know is why you don't have more goals this year?" " I'm leading the league." " Yeah, in points, but not goals." "You're dishing off too much." "If you want to get scouted, you gotta drive those numbers up, buddy." " Yeah." "Do you miss hockey at all?" " Yeah." "But you know, it's just a game, right?" " Yeah." " Come on." "Best 2 out of 3." " All right." "Let's go." " Who?" " Jordy Martin." "I was on the team you played in Montreal." "We feel bad about what happened and want to make it up to you by inviting you to Fredericton for an exhibition tournament." " Yeah, well, I appreciate the gesture, but I really don't think—" " I know the guys are probably still ticked off at us, but we really want to make it up to them." "Plus, we'd pay for everything." " The families were pretty upset about what happened." " Hey, what's all this?" " ...a real disappointment, you know?" " Please, Coach, just ask them." "We got the government backing us and everything." " OK, but don't get your hopes up." " Thank you." " "We got the government backing us?" Jordy!" " They will!" "Once they find out Brockton's coming, they'll have to put money in." " Remind me to never play poker with you." " Dad?" " Yeah?" " I was thinking of coming to practice tomorrow." "(Cell phone ringing)" " Hello?" " Hey, Jordy..." "You here to play hockey?" " Uh-huh." " Well, let's have it then." " I'm sorry I called you a princess, and for beating the crap out of you." " Beating the crap out of me?" " Pretty much." " You'd still be hospitalized if your dad didn't save you." " Yeah, in your dreams." " Whatever." "So that's it?" "That's your grand apology?" " I said sorry." "That's all you get." " All right." "I need you for the Wolves game." "Dad says I should start padding my stats for Quebec City, and so should you." " I'm not going." "I'm staying for the exhibition game with Brockton." " Yeah, as if." " That was the coach of the Brockton team." "He said no." " Dad?" "Dad!" " What is it?" "What's wrong?" " Dad, they have to come." " What?" "Who?" " Brockton has to come here." "We have to make it right." " Oh..." "Jordy..." "Look..." "I know you're disappointed—" " We have to go talk to them in person." "You taught me never give up, right?" " Yes." "I'm sorry." "Is it too late to take that back?" " We have to go right away." " Uh... there was something I had to do this morning..." "Oh, yeah." "That's right." "Go to my job to earn us a living." " It's important!" " There are some things you can't fix." "You know that, right?" " But you're supposed to try." " All right, well, can I wake up first?" " That would be best, since you're driving." " Grr..." "No, no, I'm with a sales rep." "No, I'm on the other side of town." "Way on the other side of town." "No, this afternoon's not possible." "Sorry." "OK." " Mom said she found a furnished apartment close to the school." " Yeah, she told me." " She tell you about the guy next door?" " What guy next door?" " Lance, the bodybuilder." "You know, the guy who brought her dinner?" " OK, knock it off." " We could just move there, you know." "I wouldn't mind." " Jordy..." " There's other jobs, you know." "Or maybe there's even a golf course." "I'm just sayin'." " This is it!" "You ready?" " Absolutely." "I'll just wait here." " Ha ha!" " Kidding!" "I was kidding." " How ya doin'?" "Well, I think they remember us." "Hi, there." "Neil Martin." "We spoke on the phone." "This is my boy Jordy." " What brings you to Brockton?" " Hey, Cam Neely." "Come over and check this out." "I made this up for the tournament." "It's just rough right now, but this is kind of the idea." "We'd have two jerseys, like home and away." "Cool, eh?" " That's nice." "But I hope I made myself clear on the phone." " And the jerseys will be donated." "Businesses are pledging money, and the government, obviously." "Enough money to cover the whole team's expenses." " Well, not—" " Almost all of it." " Some of it, but you say the word and we'll raise the rest." " You are one tenacious forechecker, I'll give you that." "But the team talked it over and made a decision." "No one wants to go back to Canada." " But you have to." " Jordy..." " Sorry." "(Coach):" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" " I'd like to show you guys something." "(Whistle)" "Massachusetts lost 11 Marines since the war started." "One of them a 21-year-old Lance Corporal" "I used to coach in little league." "That's Randy, in '95 when he was still playing Midget." "These are our children dying over there." "And when people burn our flag and boo our anthem, it's personal." "That's why we can't get over it." "I don't doubt you're good people, but you got to let this go." " Then how do I make it better?" " It's not your job to make it better, son." " Then whose job is it?" "We have to go back." " No." " I got to talk to Michael, their leader." "If he changes his mind, the others will too." " How many times do they have to say no to you?" "I mean, you're killing me here." "I don't know what you're trying to prove or who you're trying to prove it to." "But you can't fix this, all right?" "There is a war going on!" "People are going to disagree!" "Hurtful things are going to happen!" "It's not your fault!" "Look, I miss her too." "All right?" "But this..." "Jordy, this isn't going to change anything." "Look, I really think we should phone first." " They'll just tell us not to come." "(Doorbell)" " How did I end up with this kid?" "Hi, you're probably wondering what we're doing here." " Hi, can I speak with Michael please?" " It's not a good time." "I thought you were going back." " We are—" " I didn't speak to Michael." " Peter, who is it?" " Hi." " Uh, look, my son's heading overseas tomorrow and we're having a family dinner for him." " Oh, yeah, bad timing." "We should've called." " You're that hockey player from Canada?" " Yes, ma'am." " Come on in." " We're intruding." " Nonsense." "You too." "There's plenty." " Please." " You boys get enough to eat?" " Yes, ma'am." "Thank you." " Maybe I'll have one more piece." "Excuse me." "(Laughing)" " Now that's your third piece." " Yeah, well, I don't know when I'll see another chess pie." " Michael, why don't you take Jordan outside, show him your practice net." " OK, Mom." "Come on, Jordy." "Thanks for dinner." " Thanks for dinner." " You're welcome." " I want to apologize for barging in on you guys like this." "Jordy's kind of obsessed with this tournament." " I hadn't noticed." "(All chuckling)" " Why is that?" " It's complicated." " Well, you're a pretty good dad for bringing him down here." " I guess I feel I owe him one." " What was the best hockey game ever played?" " That's easy." "1980 Olympics in Lake Placid." "US over Russia for the gold medal." "Give me a hand." "What do you think the best game was?" " Canada-Russia, game 8, '72 Summit Series." " That wasn't even for a medal or anything." "It was just like exhibition." " I know." "Sweet, man." " Yeah." "My dad put this together for my brother, so now I use it." "We're not going back to Canada." "You know that, right?" " This is a first." "I've never let guests do the dishes before." " I don't mind doing dishes." " Hear that, honey?" "He doesn't mind doing the dishes." "Your wife's a lucky gal." " Well, if you don't need me," "I'm going to whip those boys into shape." " Nice young guy." "May I ask how old he is?" " Yeah, he'll be 20 next month." " Chris was one of the state's top college defensemen." "But he had to quit school and join up." "Gave up a scholarship and everything." "Why?" " To serve his country." "He's my best friend." "What if he..." "What if I never see him again?" "Do you have any idea what that feels like?" " No." " Hey, boys." " Hey." " Thanks." "Oh!" "Ooh!" "Top shelf, glove side, 5 in a row." "You miss, you start over." "Go." "You know, you should go to this tournament." " You weren't there for what happened in Canada." " In basic training, you learn to tell the difference between a friend and an enemy." "Jordy's trying to be your friend." "Not an offer you get every day, trust me." " Even if I wanted to the guys wouldn't want to get smoked again." " What if we play on the same team?" "Two teams." "Half Canadian, half US." "That way, it doesn't matter who wins." "We're going to call it a friendship tournament." " Now you're talking." " Huh?" " Huh?" "Argh!" " Hey!" " Come on, it's raining." "Let's go inside." "If we mix up the teams so nobody gets pounded" "I'm sure the guys will want to go." " You remember the effort it took to get us to Canada the first time?" " It won't cost anything." "Right, Dad?" " Right." " It's not just that." "Some of those folks had never been out of the US." "It was a big deal." " This will be bigger." "I guarantee it." " Well, someone will have to convince Diane." "She'll have to take time off work, plus you know the effort it was to convince her the first time." " Why don't you let me take care of Diane, huh?" "Hey, that's great!" "Did you do that?" " Huh?" "My little brother's gonna represent his country." "Looking sharp." "Good job, buddy." " Thanks, man." " Bye now." " Yes, we did it!" "I told you to come." "Never give up!" " That's right." " I want to call Mom." "Can I?" " Yeah." "You know, there is the little matter of raising all the money!" " Mom, we're in Brockton!" "Dad and I organized a hockey tournament!" "It's going to be awesome, huge!" " Expensive." " And the Americans are coming for sure?" " Yes." " Where's the Minor Hockey Association's commitment letter?" " It's coming." " Because I won't release a cheque without it." " It'll be here." " OK, I guess we're in for 20." "(Chuckling)" " Thank you." " Yes, thank you." " But we need 30." " Oh, no." " We wouldn't ask, but—" " We've worked every angle." " I'm sure you have." " What about the Premier?" " I'd like nothing better than to share you guys with the Premier." " Where's his office?" " Oh, he's not here today." "On the golf course." " Can I get your autograph, sir?" " Sure." "Oh, the hockey tournament people." " Thank you." " Sir, I was noticing you're lifting your left foot." "I think that's what's causing the high fade." " I did research on the 1972 Summit Series between Canada and Russia." "Want to see?" " Do I have a choice?" " Equal weight as you shift over the ball." " This is a picture of Pierre Trudeau and the Russian Premier, who said even though the Russians were losing, fans in Moscow were still yelling the word "friendship"." " Shift your weight on your left foot as you swing through." " If a hockey game in 1972 could do that between Canada and Russia, in the middle of the Cold War why not between Canada and the US?" " May I just..." " Yeah!" " Yes!" " Like that!" "If you can fix it, why not try?" " There's hurt feelings between our countries, and no one's doing anything." "You could help." " And all you need is..." " $10,000 more." "(Laughing)" " I get to drop the puck." " No, sorry." "Frank Mahovlich does." "But you can do everything else." "(Voice on television)" " Buddy, hey..." "Might as well take it to bed, huh?" " Did you call Mom?" " No, not yet." " Tonight though, right?" " Yeah, tonight." "Come on." " Dad?" " Yeah?" " I didn't think it would work." " Yeah, me either." " I guess anything's possible, right?" " Yeah." "But I looked into it." "There's a couple of management positions available at the plant in Bathurst." "I know." "I said a lot of things I'm not sure I mean anymore." "Can we talk about it again?" "Leave the door open a crack, at least?" "OK, yeah." "Sure." "See how it goes." "I miss you." " Dad!" "Dad!" " What's going on?" " It was on the board at the rink!" "They booked our ice-time!" " All right, let's go." "Come on." "Come on." "Wait here." " Neil!" "What can I do for you?" " What the hell is this?" " Steve, keep an eye on the barbecue." "It was Midget qualifiers." "We needed the ice-time." " You filled that slot to block Jordy's tournament!" " Look, we both know where Jordy should be that week." "In Quebec City at that assessment camp." " He's my kid." "You don't make that decision for him!" " Somebody should." " If Kyle can't make it in Quebec without Jordy, then he shouldn't be there." "This is a letter from you and the Minor Hockey Association welcoming this tournament to our community and pledging your full support!" "Sign it." " Sign it, Dad." "Please, just sign it." " Your son is ruining his career." " He's 12 years old." "He doesn't have a career." "Come on." " What if it's a trap, huh?" "What if they shoot us or sic their beavers on us?" " Shut up, Dennis!" " They'd only shoot you anyhow." " Yeah, it's no big loss." "(Police siren)" " Holy!" "Look!" "See!" " Uh..." " It's OK, guys." "Let's just see what they want." " We didn't do anything wrong!" " It's OK." "We don't know what they want." " Folks... welcome to Canada." "(All chuckling)" "We'll be giving you an escort the rest of the way." " Woo!" " Police escort?" " You folks are going to have a great time." "Welcome to Canada, ma'am." " Thank you." " Welcome." "You guys follow me." "(All laughing)" " How about that, huh?" "(Cheering)" "(Cheering)" " It's truly amazing!" "Just wonderful!" " Thank you so much." " Jordy..." " Nice to see you again, man." " For sure." " Pretty cool, huh?" " This is way cool." " Told you it would be big." "♪ Bagpipes" "How's your brother?" " He's good." " That's good." " How did you pull this together?" " I have no idea." "(Cheering)" " And now, ladies and gentlemen," "Premier Bernard Lord." " On behalf of the people of New Brunswick" "I would like to officially welcome the Brockton Boxers to the province of New Brunswick, and to the Friendship Tournament!" "(Cheering)" " Wow!" "As some of you may remember, in 1972, two nations, Canada and Russia, were brought together in friendship by a hockey tournament." "New Brunswick is very proud to be doing the same thing today." "It's going to be a great week of hockey and fun and friendship." "So let's get started." "(Cheering)" " Hey, man!" "How's it going?" "This is awesome!" " I know." "Thanks, Dennis." " Really?" "A formal banquet!" "Wow, that's great." "Will you be there too?" " Yes, ma'am." " Hey, Mom." " Hey." " Hey, K.P!" " Looks like a pretty big deal." " Yeah." "The biggest." "When are you leaving for Quebec?" " Oh, now." "My dad's picking me up." "(Horn honking)" " Too bad." "It's going to be a great week." "Anyway, good luck, eh?" "Keep your head up." "There's going to be some big boys out there in Quebec City." " Wish you were coming, man." " Wish you were staying." " Number 12, numéro 12, from the Brockton Boxers," "Dennis Heany!" " Dennis!" " And finally, minor hockey is supposed to make better hockey players out of little boys." "This last player proves that it makes better human beings." "From the Fredericton Canadiens, number 25, numéro 25," "Jordan Martin!" "And to drop the puck for the ceremonial face-off please welcome one of hockey's all-time greats, the Big M," "Mr. Frank Mahovlich!" "(Cheering)" " Jordan!" "Jordan!" "Hi!" " How you doing?" "Good stuff." "You ready?" "OK, guys." " Ladies and gentlemen, mesdames et messieurs, the Stanley Cup, la Coupe Stanley!" " Someday you two guys are going to be playing for this." " And a very special guest, from the 1967 Cup-winning Leafs, clear the track, here comes Shack!" "Ladies and gentlemen, Eddie Shack!" " How's it going, Frankie?" "Congratulations, guys!" "Congratulations." "Now you guys can take it for a little spin." "I did it 4 times." "How about that?" "There's nothing like it, I'll tell you right now." "Go ahead." " There ya go!" "(Cheering)" "(Cheering)" "(Cheering)"
