“Slap Shot”  was loosely based upon a true story about the sale of a losing hockey team.  The movie featured brothers Steve and Jeff Carlson with David Hanson;  all three were professional hockey players.

Hanson substituted for the third Carlson brother Jack, who had been drafted by the Edmonton Oilers and couldn’t make the filming. (Jack had a nice record on his own, piling up 1,111 penalty minutes in 508 professional games.)
