In the scene where Tammy and Tommy first join the team and get their uniforms, Bombay helps Tammy get her shirt over her head. Her hair is tucked in the shirt. In the next shot before she talks to Tommy, her hair is above her shirt. See more...
When Gordon and Charlie's mom are looking at the ice sculptures, watch the people in the background near the end of the scene. Just as Charlie's mom starts to walk away, a woman in a beige hooded coat pauses, makes a circling motion in front of her face then points at the sculptures. What she's doing is saying "It's beautiful" in American Sign Language. See more...

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.
I don't see how any referee in his right mind would let players in a shootout, not wear a helmet. [In hockey, it is not required to wear a helmet during a shootout/penalty shot. There is no action until the next puck drop after the shot is taken and therefore the helmet is not required for safety.]
When Bombay is in the limo on the ice the first time after he tells district 5 to practice he is on the car phone. Pay attention to the cord when all the kids come in. It's not connected to anything. [It's not attached to anything because one of the kids goes 'Oh cool is that a real phone?' and he pulls it out. Notice he looks exasperated when he realises the phone has been disconnected.]
In the beginning of the movie when Gordon Bombay is coaching D-5, there would be no way this team would be permitted to play with the lack of and/or outdated hockey equipment. Goldberg has no goalpads, most of his skaters have no full facial protection, no shin pads and the use of bike and football helmets. [In most minor leagues espicially in the 80s and early 90s you did not need a full face mask.]
When Coach Bombay has the Ducks practice passing eggs to each other, he tells them "Confidence, not strength." At the end of the movie, when the Ducks say goodbye to Bombay, Fulton Reed repeats this advice to Bombay, but he gets it backwards. Fulton says "Remember: strength, not confidence." [That was intentional.]
The flying V is 15 feet offside. [The Flying V is NOT offside. They were very careful to make this play legal. If you watch the play carefully, you will see that just before the team enters the offensive zone, the puck is passed to the lead guy, who brings it across the blue line. This makes it legal, as the player with the puck is the first to cross the blue line.]
At the very end of the movie where Gordon Bombay is saying his goodbyes, if you look at the bus behind him the American flag is reversed. [The American Flag on the passanger side of the Greyhound bus where Gordon was entering is always in reverse.]
