February 25 1977 

Directed by George Roy Hill, from a screenplay by Nancy Dowd, SLAP SHOT opens.With nothing left to lose after his hockey team suffers yet another humiliating defeat, player/coach Paul Newman sends the 3 Hanson brothers into battle. Hysterically hilarious solid gold classic sports movie from a classic decade co-starring Strother Martin and Michael Ontkean.
