Minor Leaguer


Jake McKay, the longtime captain of the Hemel Hawks in the Old West Hockey League, is overjoyed when he learns that his childhood hero, hockey legend Teemu Selanne, has bought the Hawks. But unlike his humble public persona, Teemu is an egomaniac who appoints himself as the team’s new head coach and general manager. While Jake struggles to deal with Teemu’s massive ego in the weeks leading up to training camp, Teemu’s archenemy – fellow hockey legend Brett Hull – puts a bid in for an opposing team. Infuriated, Teemu tries to stop the deal by bribing the league’s shady commissioner. Meanwhile, Jake’s lovable loser best friend and team equipment manager, Sniff, falls head over heels for Amy, the Hawk’s new merchandise manager. But if he hopes to see it go anywhere, he must first overcome his fear of pretty girls.
