Jessie Chadwick I think all hockey players should know how to read and write. Derek Sutton To the game and getting out of this hick town! Thank God there is a sport for middle-sized white boys. The only thing better than a glass of beer, is tea with Miss McGill! Hey, go hump your Saint Bernard, scum-nuts. I don't give a shit where I play as long as I go number one in the draft and I sign the biggest contract I can. I've been busting my ass in this league for four years, and I'm gonna get what's coming to me. Murray Chadwick All right, one period left. One period away from winning it all or losing to these miserable hackers with their shit-eating grins and their Saturday night wrestling tactics. One period away from remembering something for the rest of your life or something you wanna forget. Carl Racki [to Youngblood] Wanna go, pretty boy? Other Kelly Youngblood: [walks into barn and sees Dean standing in front of a punching bag] Just hit it, pillowhands. Don't worry, it's not gonna hit you back. Blane Youngblood: You can learn to punch in the barn, but you gotta learn to survive on the ice. Dialogue Kelly Youngblood: Don't take any shit from them Canucks. To them, you're just another wetback, crossing the border to play their game. Dean Youngblood: They'll never catch me! Kelly Youngblood: Oh, they'll catch you. Murray Chadwick: Where'd you get these guys from, Ray? Mexico? Ray: We're only looking for one player. Murray Chadwick: Like that sorry son of a bitch who just tripped over the blueline? Duane Hewitt: Fast legs, slow fists. Dean Youngblood: [about Racki] The guy suckered me. Duane Hewitt: Oh, poor baby. Hey, maybe next time we can send you a telegram: get ready for the right hook. Derek Sutton: Stay on sides, Youngblood. Dean Youngblood: Pass the puck! Derek Sutton: Don't tell me when to pass the puck. Dean Youngblood: You want me to slow down for ya? Taglines The ice... The fire... The fight... To be the best. To Youngblood, winning wasn't everything - proving himself was.
