Recognize him?   He's the worst goon in hockey! One of my all time favorite movies....heres a good site with a bunch of  facts about Slap Shot http://espn.go.com/page2/s/closer/020501.html The guy who played Ned Braden used to come into the video store I worked at in Malibu and I used to pick his brain about his memories of filming the movie.  Said it was the most fun he ever had in his life....sounds like it was one big party.

Old time hockey?

awesome link, some real cool facts there!

Jim Carr: Andre "Poodle" Lussier, defense. Andre, as you know, has been living in semi-seclusion in Northern Quebec ever since the unfortunate Denny Pratt tragedy. Morris Wanchuk: Not Poodle.
