40 years ago, in 1977 the movie Slap Shot came out and was filmed in Johnstown, PA

Loved that flick. My ex didn't care for it. Her maiden name is the same as some of the players

I haven't seen it from beginning to end because of a penguin game, but I caught it at the BEST fight scenes though

I haven't watched a hockey game since I was 10, but they are sure exciting. Not a sports fan, by any means, but now, if I ever bother to get a TV up and running, I may start doing it. Now, who to choose as a fan. I'm from Youngstown, so Penguins would be a good choice, but I'm also near Chicago, so Black Hawks would be another. Not the redwings, tho. That's my daughter's ex fave team.
