You want a pair? Need a pair?

Salming, Sittler,
McDonald, Tiger,

all the stars on the ice.

Tickets here. Want a pair?
Need a pair?

Toronto Maple Leaves!

Hello again everybody,
we're here in the Gardens

for this exciting series between
the Leafs and the Islanders.

Will the Leafs tie it up
with another display

of disciplined hockey like they
showed us Friday night?

Or will the Islanders bounce
back and grab a three games

to one lead in this bruising series?

Those are the questions
we're asking.

Well it's been a hitting series so
far, as everybody knows,

and nobody expects any kind
of a change tonight.

Lanny McDonald, over the line.

Close it in, takes his shot
and just missed!

Darryl Sittler to Börje Salming,
right in!

Oh, Shot it over top of the net.

Salming goes in after it to Sittler.

Sittler behind the net,
right back to Börje!

Darryl got a piece of Rach...

Lanny to Börje Salming.

Pass up to Valiquette.
Valiquette to Ellis.

Over the line, Ellis.
Ellis to Valiquette...

He saves! Wait! Oh...

By the open corner, right...

Börje Salming!

Puck goes first... nobody knows

but the Leafs got
the first goal again tonight.

Like they did in the two-nothing
shootout the other night.

Lanny McDonald for Sittler.

Goes to blue,
Valiquette to Lanny McDonald.

Lanny McDonald.

Back to Salming.

Back to Lanny McDonald.

In to Sittler.

Sittler, too well covered
by Dave Lewis.

Out, Börje Salming has it!
Gets a shot.

Salming is down and hurt.

- Stay down.
- Kid, take this.

Listen to me, just take this.

Lay down.

Where is he hit?

Stay down.

The rep goes to Salming,
he took one arm on him there.

Salming got the... The stick came
around from in front of Salming

and perhaps caught him
in the face somewhere.

All the players are very concerned
now as Salming is still on the ice.

He's helpless out there.

Now he's getting up on his skates.

There's concern for Salming
in the executive box too.

John McLellan there with Jim Gregory
and Harold Ballard.

Börje Salming, one of the greatest
hockey players in the world.

Standing ovation!

Tribute to number 21,
a standing ovation for Salming.

With the score, Toronto, two.
New York Islanders, nothing.

This is Stanley Cup '78.

- We love, Börje.
- Börje, you're my hero!

Get well soon.

The kids are shouting for you Börje.

Hang in there, Börje.

What are you wearing?

The staff said some fan had come
here and offered up their own eye.

You think this is funny?

It was a little bit funny.

Margitta?

I can't do it.

I can't sit at home,
waiting for the phone to ring.

For someone to tell me
you're not coming home.

What do you want me to do?
You want me to quit?

I don't know, Börje.

It has to be your choice.

It's not a choice.

What do you mean?

You come first.

In what way to we come first?

How is this putting us first?

I always put you first. You want
to live here, you say you're happy.

It's my fault for wanting
to stay in Toronto?

No, that's not what I said.

I do this for you too.

And for the kids.
I want you to have a good life.

Nothing matters, Börje,
if you don't come home.

So what should I do?
I don't know anything but hockey.

You can be my husband.

This is my life too.

I have to get the kids.

We can all come back later.

We won that series
against the Islanders.

Though most of the team
went to the hospital to celebrate.

But after seeing him, well...

It was hard to think that he would
ever play hockey again.

Ah, you must be Mr Salming.

- Yes.
- Pleased to meet you. Welcome.

- Thank you.
- Come on in, this way.

Make yourself at home.

See, he knew, I mean we all knew,
the league had changed.

Montreal Canadians beat us four
straight after the Islanders series.

But we were so close man,
we were getting there.

But Ballard, Hurricane Harold,
he wanted everything right now.

In that impatience he got rid of
the general manager, the coach.

And he forced the team
to go back in time, yeah.

Good work today boys.

Come on, Salming. Keep up.

Hired Punch Imlach.

Don't get me wrong, Punch Imlach,
he was a great coach in the '60s,

but the game had outgrown him.

Still treated the players
like foot soldiers

that needed to be barked at.

And God forbid anyone ever spoke up.

That's it boys, keep working it.

Looking good.

Hey, you're really keeping up today.
It's good.

Attaboy, Hawk.

Keep going, Salming. Keep trying.

Two more minutes! Finish hard!
Then hit the showers.

No, no, no!

You're being too soft
on them, Smitty.

Come on you guys,
you've got to push yourselves.

Find it inside, push!

Saganiuk,
rookie season's over alright?

You want ice time,

you're gonna earn it right here
in this room, on this bike.

Come on! Push! Move it!

- Come on, push!
- Punch, That's enough.

Give the kid a break.

- Rocky, you okay?
- Twice your age,

and I can do better than that!

Sittler, you and I, later.

Hey, you looked strong out there, Rocky.

We're being pushed too hard man.

We keep this up, we won't have
any energy left for the game.

- Are you getting old, Hawk?
- Old?

You mess with the bull, you get
the horns. Come on, let's go.

Maybe he's just talking sense.

All right, boys.

Great work, that's enough for today.
Good job.

- Good job, there.
- Let's call it a day.

Börje, we're gonna grab a bite
to eat, you wanna come?

I can't today,
I got something to do.

- Alright. Great job.
- Yeah.

Hey don't let him get to you, eh?

Good job, Rockie.

We'll get them tomorrow.

Most people they don't know,
it was never in the news.

And he never
complained about it either.

But he had lost 50 percent
of his vision, I mean 50.

How the hell do you play hockey when
you only see half of everything?

Finally told me, said he didn't
want the competition to know.

Yeah, that was the beginning of us
banging our heads together

over that God damned visor.

I think I want to start
with a black.

Okay, let's do the thing,
I wanna make sure that...

BJ, finally!

Hey, Paula.

Looks like everything's
coming along nicely.

Yeah it does, but we need all
the time we can get.

No time for donuts?

- Always.
- Perfect, some sugar.

Börje, you've got to help me here,
they're killing me.

I mean, this is not what i signed up
for when I said I'd be Dole Doff's

- head of advertisement.
- You're the best, though.

Take a donut, you've earned it.

If we could just ditch this.

You know, she is tough.

But I'd do anything for her.

In fact, if I wasn't gay,
I would gladly fight you for her.

I wouldn't stand a chance.

Funny, Börje. That's funny.

- And then I think this look is done.
- I got nothing.

Do a picture of her, then maybe
change into something else,

- just for the picture.
- Alright, fantastic.

- Are these the new invitations?
- Yeah.

- Fancy.
- Right?

But why is it on the 16th?

- What do you mean?
- We've got a game then.

It's the quarterfinal playoffs.

Right...

Maybe you won't make it
to the quarterfinals.

But we'll try to.

Of course.

But it's a home game at least,
so we...

Maybe I can come after.

Knowing you,
you'll be there all night.

Yeah.

- You ready for me?
- Yeah, we can do a picture instead.

Let's take a picture of that
finished look...

What else can I help you guys with?

So, it's still not okay?

Guess I'll get used to it.

- No, we don't get used to the...
- Smokey, there's no cow on the ice.

Huh?

It means,
"There's no cow on the ice."

Something that our mother
used to say,

when she didn't want me
or Stigge to worry.

Oh, because the cow's not
on the ice, so it's safe?

Yeah.

Don't worry.

Well cow or no cow,
you got to wear the visor.

Alright.

I'll wear the damned visor.

Hey. How did the treatment work out?

- Good.
- Yeah? Feeling good?

- Yeah, it feels okay.
- Nice.

Unbelievable!

Lanny! What happened?

He traded me!

He traded me to Colorado.

- What?
- Ardell's giving birth next week.

What am I supposed to tell her?

This is just power.
It's about power.

Hasn't got a single fucking ounce
of hockey in it!

Any you better believe
that by the time he's done

there's gonna be nothing left
of this club!

Sitts...

Sitts, these boys need you
right now. Your team's watching.

Darryl, what are you doing?

What does it matter in the end?

Everyone with skill is gone.

Inge. Howie. Now Lanny?

This place deserves better, Börje.

You got to talk to Ballard.

Explain that he can't let this
maniac walk all over him.

Börje.

Insist that he fires Punch.

Here was the problem,

Punch didn't like Sittler,
'cause Sittler spoke up.

Tried to get rid of him
but he couldn't,

'cause Darryl had
a no-trade contract.

That wasn't gonna stop Punch.

No, he was gonna force out Darryl by
trading all his friends on the team.

And that's exactly what he did.

Oh, he was stuck
right in the middle of it.

I mean on one side
he's got the management,

on the other side
he's got his teammates.

To him they were all family.

Mr Ballard, why is Lanny
McDonald not playing tonight,

and why isn't Darryl Sittler
team captain anymore?

Well in this club, you got to work
hard to earn your spot on the ice.

And you got to work even harder
to earn the right

to lead the rest of the team.
That's all.

Can I ask one more question,
does this mean that Sittler...

The team was a freaking mess.

We hadn't made the playoffs
in two seasons.

But Börje.
Yeah, Börje just kept us fighting.

You know when you're kids,

and everybody's lining up,
they wanna be picked.

You would always pick Börje first.

Yeah, you want him on your team.

But damn, he couldn't do it alone.

I'll tell you, thank God,
at that time...

At that time his wife, I mean,

she was one fireball
of talent, I'll tell you.

I think she really helped him,

with everything that was going on
to keep him fighting.

- How are you late for everything?
- I'm so sorry.

Come on do you not hear the crowd?
We have to go.

We're gonna make it.

- Dancing queen!
- We're gonna make it.

And where was Ballard when his
empire was crumbling around him?

He put himself in self exile,
just like Napoleon.

So he didn't have to listen
to anybody or, you know,

maybe actually change some of the
God damned mess he had created.

Weak sinuses make you a prime target
for infections and viruses.

All you need
is a little bit of time.

But you know what
is the best medicine of all?

Rest.

All right, I'm gonna put a tape on
and I'll be back in 15 minutes.

Rain or whales?

Jazz music or soul?

- Soul.
- Soul? All right, whales it is.

Okay, just relax,
I'll be back in 15 minutes, okay?

- Okay. Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Hey, Greg.

My cousin owns the bakery next
door, told me you were here.

So I'm writing an article and...

I wanted to get your comment
on the growing rift

between Darryl Sittler
and upper management,

following the trade
of Lanny McDonald.

- What's your take on that?
- No comments.

Don't you think
the Maple Leafs supporters

are gonna want to know
what's happening?

We...

We're going for the cup.

That's your quote.

The usual girls but,
I'm sure there's something for her.

She could also invite
some of her friends,

- I would love to meet them as well.
- Okay, yeah.

I'm sure she'll figure everything
out it's a fun event.

Is this your first time?

It is my first time.
I'm very nervous to be honest.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Oh, hey.
- I thought I saw your car out there.

Yeah, Margitta was just telling me

their studio has it's grand opening
coming up.

Yeah, it's nice.

- It's exciting.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Do you want to stay for dinner?

No, I just wanted a quick word
with Börje, if you don't mind.

- Just hockey stuff.
- Yeah, no worries.

But thanks for the invitation
I'll pass it on to Wendy.

Give her my best.

You heard about Tiger?

- No.
- He just called me.

They're trading him too.

What?

You see what's going on here, right?

They can't stand to have
another leader within the team.

They see me as a threat, and they
want to get rid of me by any means.

You know that.

Yeah I get it, Darryl.

I'm gonna do everything I can
for this team, for us.

- I don't wanna see my friends leave.
- So what's it gonna be then, Börje?

I mean I'm asking you as a friend.

Are you gonna do something
about it?

- I haven't had the opportunity.
- Then go knock on his door.

Pick up the phone. I mean we are on
the same side here, aren't we?

Of course we are.

I'll see you at practice.

Take care, Margitta.

Bye!

What was that about?

I have to go do something,
I'll be back soon.

No, you can't, I have to work.

I understand, but I'll be back
before, it'll be quick.

- Börje, who will take the kids?
- One hour, I'll be fast.

- Stop it.
- Margitta, I get it,

but I'll be back in time,
I promise.

- What?
- Mr Ballard, sir.

- What're you doing? Get out.
- Sorry to interrupt.

You have a visitor.

Oh, Börje.

What is going on?
What's happening here?

I...

I think the team is losing trust
in Punch.

I'm losing trust in Punch.

We're trading players
left and right,

I don't even know who
I'm playing with next game.

It's...

I feel like everyone is starting
to question his methods.

Including me.

- Thanks for being straight...
- I just care about the team.

I understand,
and if Punch is pushing you,

that's the price of success.

You know, listen,

remember that first day
you stepped into the Gardens?

I knew at that moment,

that you would change the history
of this club.

And I knew that one day,
you and I and the team

would be holding the Stanley Cup.

And you came here to win didn't you?

Yeah.

Yeah, of course I came to win,
that's why I'm here.

But I...

I don't know if Punch is,
is the right man to lead us there.

How about you come visit me,

with your wife,
in the Cayman Islands, this weekend.

What? No, but we have practice.

No, don't worry about that.
Look, you need a break, huh?

Your wife has been stressing
about her studio opening

and juggling the kids.
I read all about that.

Take the weekend off.
Don't worry about it.

- I appreciate it, but I don't know.
- I won't take no for an answer.

Can't you guys knock?

I'll knock twice next time.

Great game the other night, brilliant.

This guy here,
he can get the best out of you.

Oh yes. Go tell your wife

that she'll be eating mangoes
and coconuts this weekend.

Alright? We'll have a blast.

We'll have a wonderful time.

- Alright.
- Alright.

Good night, Börje.

- I'll see you Harold.
- Yeah.

What the hell was that?

- Never mind.
- I got no idea.

Oh no! I got it.

- Are you ready?
- Yeah.

- Here it comes.
- Let me know when you back up!

Good. Oh, I got it!

Wow, good one.

Good one, yeah.

"It went over me yet did not swallow
me up, it was to carry me away.

And the next one I took,
I got to the mainland.

Where, to my great comfort,

I clambered up the cliffs
off the shore,

and sat me down upon the grass,

free from danger, and quite
out of the reach of the water...

I was now landed and safe on shore,

and began to look up,

and thank God
that my life was saved,

in a case wherein there
was some minutes before,

scares any room to hope."

Mango, here you go.

Thank you.

I was thinking...

It's enough after this season.

Enough of what?

Hockey.

I won't renew the contract.

I want to be there for you,
like you have been for me.

We've got enough money.

Hey, come here. Sit down.

Darling...

You know the most important thing
to me is that you...

we, are happy.

I know that, Crumb.

What about Anders?

Apparently he'd competed

over who could put the
most biscuits in their mouth.

So they weren't happy.

Okay kids, time for bed.
Turn off the TV.

No, it's okay, they can watch TV.

GOOD LUCK DARLING BÖRJE

Okay, bye, love you.

Bye. Break a leg.

- Should I go?
- You should just go. Go.

Well done!

- Was it okay?
- Yeah.

Oh my God.

I think I'm gonna puke.

- That was so good.
- Thank you.

Margitta.

Oh my God, what? What in the world?

- You came!
- That was amazing!

You're supposed
to be in Switzerland.

And miss this?
The birth of Dole Doff, never!

I can't believe you're here,
I missed you so much.

- You straightened out that line.
- Stop, you're gonna make me cry.

- Oh my God.
- You got to tell me everything.

Now you listen to me carefully.

Your contracts are on the line
this next period.

And I don't give a good God damn

how long you think
you've signed on for.

I will tear them to shreds!

You got it?

Yeah? Then go! Go on!

Let's go, boys. Let's go out there.
Come on, Hawk. Show what we got.

Sittler, Salming, a word.

What is going on out there?

You two are going around like you're
more focused on your next pedicure

than you are on this game.

Am I wrong? Huh?

Then get out there!

And you!
Please show some leadership!

So I guess you didn't talk to him?

I tried.

Okay? I tried.

I'm here to play hockey.

Alright?

I have my family here.

This city's our home.

I feel bad for Lanny, and Inge, and
Howie, and everyone who got traded.

But what can I do, Darryl?

What can I do? Huh?

I'm gonna go out there,
I'm gonna put the work in,

and I'm gonna get the job done.

As should you!

Okay.

I know where you stand.

We always had this little ritual
before we'd go onto the ice.

But not that night.

It took years to form that team.

But it took one Hurricane Harold
and his ego, to destroy it.

Sittler! Go, go!
