Mike, Tommy and Kevin welcome Mighty Ducks technical advisor and hockey trainer Jack White to the podcast. Jack shares a number of stories about training the actors, what he remembers about the original Adam Banks getting kicked off the film, how he became an actor in all three films, and more.

Show notes:

Paul Michael Glaser in all his glory:

Eric Strobel, for those who aren’t familiar with him. The original Adam Banks fired a puck at his chest.

Touch and Go is a story about an ice hockey star who befriends a troubled kid and his mother after the kid’s gang tried to rob him.

The plot synopsis for H-E Double Hockey Sticks, taken straight from IMDB: “Griffelkin, a young devil-in-training is sent to the surface of Earth to steal the soul of Dave, a hot shot pro-hockey player aspiring to be the youngest man to win the Stanley Cup.”
