The older I get, the funnier this movie is. When he slaps the whole bench in the face with his stick, I laugh like a little kid EVERYTIME

After 41 years this is still the greatest hockey movie ever made, bar none...

Dave Hanson runs the hockey program at the RMU Neville Island sports center in Pittsburgh. Great dude and he still embraces the role that made him famous.

“These guys are a fucking disgrace!” Such a well read line

Four decades later, and we're all still rootin' for the Hansons!

"Bring the kids … we've got entertainment for the whole family!" LMAO … 😆

“Dave’s a killer!” “Dave’s a mess!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I love them sitting on the bench in the locker room as Paul is looking at them considering. They look like pet dogs staring intently at their owner waiting for the "Want to go for a walk?" line before freaking out.

The stick rake along the bench of the opposing team is still the single greatest scene in movie history...and probably hockey history too...

Let's see here... 1) good clean hit 2) good clean hit 3) no slash, was going for the puck 4) goalie dove 5) played the man 6) perfect hipcheck 7) skated into the net, momentum carried his stick into opposing player 8) fanned on the pass, accidently hit other player 9) ref was in the way 10) played the man and recovered the puck 11) players shouldn't have been leaning over like that 12) clearly a dive 13) simply cleared the puck 14) bullshit calls by the ref

When he trips the goalie and just nonchalantly skates away like nothing has happened. 😂 This movie is a cinematic treasure.

I'm french-canadian and this movie was so darn popular with my hockey-obsessed people, bacause it was one of the earliest english-speaking movie that was actually translated BY and FOR French-canadians, accent and all. Everything else was translated into "whole wide worldly french" way back then.

I met the Henson's in the 80s at a charity hockey match.....they had the whole getup on and spent a ton of time with us youngsters.....love old time hockey!

4 of the greatest minutes in the history of cinema.

Slap Shot NEVER gets old. As good a movie as you can find anywhere in any genre in any decade.

Seeing the puck hit the organ player still makes me laugh all these years later.

the look on Paul Newman's face marveling at them is just priceless lol

I remember Newman talking about his many years of making movies, but this one made the biggest smile. I think, this one movie was so outrageously fun to make that even a super star actor like Paul Newman had to laugh his arse off about hockey. These nuts did live like this on the ice. Who needed to act, it was real.

62 years old I saw this when I was a kid and I still love this movie.

The actual greatest shift in hockey history

I lose my shit everytime I see the organ player take that slapshot to the hairdo

This movie never gets old.

I remember watching this as a kid with my Dad. We must have watched it 100 times together. Reading the comments is like him whispering in my ear. God it makes me laugh! Good times....Great memories!

I think Reg Dunlop is one of my favorite and most underrated Paul Newman characters of all time. He inhabits the character’s life in the same manner as Hud and Cool Hand Luke but also displays his comedic chops, which I wish he’d done more in his career.

"Dave's a killer" ~"Dave's a mess" Kills me every time 😂

Any body willing to admit HOW MANY TIMES YOIU SAW THIS FILM, AND STILL LAUGH AT IT?????

"Bring the kids, we got entertainment for the whole family" 🤣

I'm 53 years old. Been a lot of places, met a lot of people. My college room-mate at SUNY Brockport in the late 1980s was a hockey player in high school, and played rec at Brockport. He was about 2 years younger than me. One day I mentioned 'Slap Shot', and he told me that he had never seen it. Even if he was not a hockey player, knowing his personality and sense of humor, I was absolutely shocked. We rented the movie. Watching this exact scene with Doug is the hardest I have ever heard a human laugh in my entire life. I didn't think he would make it.

Paul Newman supposedly claimed this was the most fun he ever had making a movie. I can see it.

Newman's reaction on the bench when the mayhem starts...HILARIOUS. One of the funniest, laugh-out-loud movies of all time!

"What are you guy's doin'?" "Puttin' on the foil! We do it every game."

The Hanson are the best characters in the movie and they're not even actors.

My Dad has a stick autographed by all the Hanson bros. Love it! This movie is a cult classic.

2018 and still the best hockey scene ever!!! Notice the fluidity of their skating, these guys were real players!! They called us names lol!!!

God love the Hanson brothers, still playing and promoting hockey and doing charity work.

One of the greatest movies ever made. The Maxine Nightingale song "Right Back Where We Started From" plays about 5 times, loved it. The Hansons, Paul Newman, Ogie Ogilthorpe all great!

Notice they are great skaters. This is part of what makes the scene great - they are legit players. Fun Fact: Steve Carlson (#17 of Hansons) was Wayne Gretzky's roommate for one year when they played for the WHA Edmonton Oilers.

"These guys are a fucking disgrace" - said with the largest shit-eating grin ever :) My favourite line in the whole movie.

Great Movie. The Director, George Roy Hill was at his prime. He also directed 'The Sting', and 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid' and 'Slaughterhouse 5,' in the same decade. This is a superb movie from an elite director at the height of his prowess.

Honestly probably the amongst the funniest 3 minutes in cinema history 😂😂😂

Best Shift Ever.

"Oh, I'm telling you, Broome County is just visibly upset by this display. Come on down, we've got places for the home games. Bring the kids! We've got entertainment for the whole family."

It's been 44 years now, and still the best one ever made

For all the brilliance of this scene and the hits, the moment when the Puck rattles the head of the organ player cracks me up. I don't know why it's so funny, it just is. "Dave's a mess" and "how much do you expect a man to take? What are you running, a god damn dance floor" are superb lines around the chaos.

"What do you run here, a goddamn dance floor"? 40-years and sill funny as it was in 1977

This is how the Philadelphia Flyers played hockey in the 70s lol

When the shot hits the organist, it gets me every time lol

this was a great scene

38 years old, and absolutely timeless.

"They brought their frickin toy cars!..."

...One of the best editing jobs in movie history. Just go back and look at it shot for shot. Brilliant!

Saw this with 7 friends when it first premiered in 1977 and in a hockey town of my beloved Broad Street Bullies, the Philadelphia Flyers, who had won two straight Stanley Cups in 1973-1974 and again in 1974-1975. Being a kid at the time, playing hockey and learning to play defenseman made 'Slap Shot' a really fun and wild film to watch with my friends. Everyone was cracking up all the time. During the entire film, the movie crowd was falling out bursting with loud laughter - especially when the Hanson Brothers showed how 'Iron League' hockey is played. Still my Number #1 sports film of all time and there's been some great sports films over the decades, so that's saying something.

I watch this clip and every time I end up in side-splitting laughter. This was one of Paul Newman's best roles.

This could be the greatest scene in the history of any film ever made.

“Slap Shot” always reminds me of games when the Baltimore Skipjacks traveled to Hershey to play the Bears………one attended a fight and hoped a hockey game would break out.

This was like getting the band back together-movie from "Cool Hand Luke"...Paul Newman and Strother Martin together again since 1967! My favorite from the Hansons was them beating the crap out of the Coke machine, "...machine took my fuckin' quarter, coach!" Hilarious!!!

I want to see the scene when they are listening to the National Anthem and the referee goes to one of the brothers in the middle of the song and warns them about their behavior. Then one of the Hansen brothers yells, "I'm listening to the 'effen' song."

The Hansens-greatest line in hockey history, and the truest expression of the essence of the game!

I have never seen the whole film, but I have watched this clip again and again.

One of my favorites!! I watched it w/hubby & 3 sons. Doesn’t get much better

DAVE'S A KILLER!!!!! ... Dave's a mess.

We've got entertainment for the whole family!

I remember watching this in a theater . I loved it ! They brought their toys .

They were just waiting patiently with enthusiasm towards the whole team, just to hear coach give them the go ahead. Legends were unleashed and the ice turned blood red that night. HANSOOOOOOOOONS !

"dave's a killer" can't stop laughing after all these years.

"DAVE'S A KILLER." "DAVE'S A MESS".

The Hanson Brothers 🤣😂🤣😂. Legends !!!!

The BEST consecutive three minutes of hockey ever caught on film

its amazing how watching this never gets old...….. that's the sign of great writing, acting, and chemistry.

This IS and always will be, the ONLY hockey movie worth watching.

What a great clip! Don’t forget the Hansons playing with electric race cars on the road and hotel. Coke machine took my quarter! Best ever hockey movie!

Filmed at the Johnstown, PA. " War Memorial Coliseum "! My College ( St. Francis, Pa. ) use to play Basketball games there! Super Movie!

Saw this as a kid, had no idea what I was in for, started out-loud laughing so hard, don't think I've laughed that hard since.

Many years following this movie Paul Newman was interviewed and claimed he had more fun making this movie than any other.

My best friend who passed from covid complications in December absolutely loved this movie. He met the Hanson brothers several times over the years when our hometown Griffons would have them make an appearance. Don even wore those obscene black rimmed glasses when he played sports 🤣 Hanson's forever!!

I met these guys in a small bar in CT at an autograph session. They were so cool

I was 15 and in a league when this movie came out. Two days after some idiot tried the stick across the bench move. Backup goalie saw it,coming grabbed the stick as he went by and the team dragged him over the boards.

Still one of the great moments in cinema history

Greatest scene in sports history on film. Never gets old ever. These guys ruled.

The year I graduated from high school. Great movie.

43 years old, & still well known. Gotta love them Hansons!

Possibly the greatest hockey movie ever made. Definetly the funniest. Cheers mates.

Man you can smell the cheap beer and polyester...

I’m Canadian and I can really identify with these guys ! I played and watched tons of hockey in the 70s and 80s !

In 2020 this is still in my top 5 movies of all time. Can’t see it ever being bumped out.

"What are guys doin'?" "Puttin' on the foil!" "Yeah, every game!" "Want some!" "They don't leave the bench."

😂😂😂 love this movie. It never gets old... Old time hockey coach... Daves a killer...Daves a mess...Lol

I was born in 1996 and I grew up ive lived in Minnesota all my life so I've grown up with and all around hockey. My dad and my uncles talk about the Minnesota NorthStars and how hockey could get very violent. I have two books on the NorthStars and I also met Lou Nanne, and Neal Broten. And Slapshot is a classic for sure it came out 19 years before I was born and its still hilarious. I have the second and third slapshot but I never seen them lol. Good old hockey

"These guys are a fucking disgrace!" This never gets old!

"These guys are a fucking disgrace!" Exactly. Boy do I love them! The best scene here is when all three of them give the business to #12, all at the same time. Lord that makes me laugh every single time when he keels over, lifeless. I played as a youngster, and the hitting was so violent because you're flying on those skates, and if you didn't see it coming to protect yourself, it was lights out. Playing ice hockey was like Christmas:. Twas better to give than to receive ;) The Hansons should've played 60 minutes a game! 1:48

OMG - I forgot how awesome this movie was. Thanks for posting

Fighting is a part of hockey, always has been and always will be. " daves a killer" " daves a mess" gets me everytime lol

The best part of this? After it was all over, after hooking the goalie, dumping the ref, and concussing the organist, was Dunlop getting in the ref's face and screaming bloody murder about self defense! "Don't you expect a man to take anything? What are you running here, a goddamn dance floor?" They say every joke has to have a punchline, and Newman capped off all that hilarity with the best punchline ever!

Dave's a killer !!!! (Dave's a mess...) Just one of the greatest timing jokes in movie history. I never get tired of this scene

greatest SPORTS movie EVER!!! "OLD TIME " HOCKEY IS THE BEE'S KNEE'S!!! HANSON BROTHERS ARE HALL OF FAME MATERIAL!!!

There are great moments in films that everyone always mentions - "You're gonna need a bigger boat", "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn", "These are not the droids your looking for", but one "quote" that everyone knows but can't repeat is the ice hockey stick slapping every opponent in the face as he skates along the ice in front of the booth. Whoever thought that up deserves a platinum comedy award as I snort-laugh every time I see it, and I've seen it a LOT of times. Amazing film never given the respect it so richly deserves.

Hockey stick hitting all the guys helmets just crack me up laughing 😂😂😂

Still the greatest shift in hockey history.

I saw this and had to buy the DVD and watch it again and again and again lol Great stuff

I LOVE THIS MOVIE! I have both, this is the best. Thanks for the memory I'm going to watch it tonight!
