Best sports movie? Tough call.. I personally love Remember the Titans the most but Sandlot is the best in terms of classic.

Drouin for Pysyk is a pretty big stretch. Maybe Drouin for McGinn Pysyk and 2017 2nd round pick. But still doubt that's enough.

This is the best hockey movie ever made.

Made for TV Canadian movie. Spear Kozak scored 76 goals for Mr. Lumbers team and Cathy Yarrow was a great goalie. How Spear supported Cathy was the foundation of their young love.

obviously not 1 for 1 but as the main piece i could definitely see it. That team is heavy in analytics and pysyk is still cost controlled.

I know it's not as big as you'd expect for a former 3rd overall pick but if nobody else is offering anything better...

I'm saying they wouldn't go for it. Drouin is still a number 3 overall pic from 3 years ago. I've never heard Buffalo really interested, my guess is he will go to a team like Anaheim in need of a playoff scoring touch.

Y said he wanted something that would help him in the playoffs right now. Don't know if he wants rentals but McGinn along with Pysyk could be a good offer. But more than likely it will require someone with a little more clout. We don't really have that. If Ennis had been playing and have say 15 goals so far this season, I could've seen him as a trade piece for Drouin. I'd bet the scouts are there for the Ducks.

Raging Bull? Caddyshack? Come on... I don't count those as sports films.... Sure they deal with a sport but they're not solely about it. Both are obviously classics though.

I usually stay away from old movies I don't like it quality usually sucks
- gerbe75pts


You're missing out. "The Dirty Dozen" "The Great Escape" "The Sting" "12 Angry Men" "All the President's Men" Just to name 5 old movies -I could go on and on- that are some of the best movies ever made, and definitely worth watching even thought "the quality sucks".

Wow. Surprised about Hoosiers being your number two seeing it is a basketball movie.

No hate, that is one of my top five favorite movies of all time (regardless of sports).

On films like that I prefer the quality over some over produced Avatar crap.

I'm not surprised, it came out in 1999, you were probably still in diapers at the time. It's not a classic like "Slap Shot", or a big movie like "Miracle" was, but still an excellent hockey movie. It's got Burt Reynolds as a small town Judge. How awesome is that?

Hoosiers was a great movie and I was always a Gene Hackman fan, back to the days of French connection, Poseidon adventure, etc.

Caddyshack is about golf but more about the country club
Ragging Bull is about boxing but more about the guy's psyche and family

I guess if you're including those then there's a lot of other films I could include too.

Yeah, he is screwed.

Must have claimed something that he should not have. Hopefully by mistake.
