Mistakes

At the end of the final game when Adam gets ready to take his penalty shot they show a full body shot and it is clear that he is wearing standard CCM skate blades. There is a hole at the toe of the blade. When he starts his penalty shot, they show a close up of his skate kicking the puck and now he has Tuuk (that's the way you spell it) blades because there is no hole at the toe. Therefore, it's obvious a double is used to take the penalty shot. See more...

Trivia

In reference to the 1980 USA Olympic team, Bombay asks everyone in the locker room who they are and where they are from. Couch Herb did the same thing to his players in 1980. See more...

After the first loss to Iceland, Bombay makes team USA do Sprints right after the game. This is a reference to the 1980 USA Olympic Team that lost to their biggest rivals by a big amount and had to do Sprints right after as well. [In 1980, the U.S. team did the wind sprints after a tie, not a loss, and not to their biggest rivals, but to Norway.]
Edit
For a major sporting event such as the Junior Goodwill Games, USA would not pick one team who won state finals as their national team, give or take a few players. For an event like this, there would have been national tryouts. [Coach Bombay made it a condition of his hire that he get to pick the majority of the players for the team. He then selected the team he had won with in the past.]
Edit
During Team USA's second game against Iceland, the flying V fails and the announcer says there's a "four on none breakaway" for Iceland. But you can see that all five Iceland players are bearing down on Goldberg with no USA players to stop them. [Actually, the announcer states that is a "Four on none break for Iceland". He is assuming the upcoming score (4-0), not the number of players headed toward Goldberg.]
Edit
In a shootout you aren't allowed to stop because once you stop you are done, so Fulton's goal and Gunner's shot would not have counted. [In a shootout, it is perfectly permissible to stop skating, just as long as the puck remains in motion and does not cross the goal line.]
Edit
Near the beginning of Team USA's first game against Iceland, Banks gets the puck after Goldberg makes a save, and the announcer says "Captain Adam Banks" has the puck. But Adam isn't the captain; Charlie is. [Character mistake on the part of the announcer, but not a movie mistake as he did call out the right player.]

At the end of the movie, they show a bunch of ducks flying. Those are not ducks, they are geese. [I'm pretty sure this was intentional. As Geese are a symbol in Minnesota and Geese are in the Duck family even if they are not actually Ducks.]
Edit
In one of the first scenes, where the Ducks get their new outfits and are training, Karp's uniform actually has his name spelt wrong on his shirt. It is spelt "CARP" instead of "KARP", but then in the next scene and for the remainder of the movie, the uniform reads "KARP". [They could have changed it during the games.]
Edit
That goal would not count - running into the goalie is a penalty. [It depends on the circumstance. True, if a player just cruises through the crease and takes out the goalie, there are a few different penalties that can be called. However, if the player running the goalie has help (ie from a defending player), it's up to the referee's discretion. The real issue in the game is whether or not the net was dislodged before or after the puck went in.]
Edit
Why would the Iceland players and coach talk privately with each other in English? Living in the San Francisco Bay Area I know a lot of people who speak English as a second language, and they very rarely talk to each other in anything other than their native tongue. [This is a typical plot device so that the audience can understand what is being said without the benefit of subtitles. There are scads of movies set in foreign lands, for example, but all the characters speak English because the movie was filmed by English speakers for English speakers.]

When Dwayne left the bench to rope the Icelandic player, in addition to the 2 minutes he got for "roping", he should've been assessed with a game misconduct penalty for leaving the bench. [He surely got a game misconduct for his little incident. The announcer was simply making a joking comment about his penalty being for "roping" because it's a very unusual thing to be penalized for. Not very often do you see a hockey player rope another one like he's roping cattle.]
Edit
In the final shootout scene, when the final duck player is on his breakaway, you will notice, as the camera view shifts from the player, to the goalie, to the fans and whatever else, the player changes from a lefty to a righty several times. [He may have switched hands. He never said if he was a righty or lefty so he may be ambidextrous which means he has the ability to switch from left to right. ]
Edit
It is stated that Dwayne is from Austin, Texas. Austin is very urban, yet Dwayne goes on about cows and chickens etc... and he is sharp with a lasso. They make it seem as though he lives on a farm. Is it me or is he just a bad example of a Texan stereotype? [Been to Dallas and Houston before-they frequently have cowboys, horses, cows, etc. walking the streets in those cities.]
Edit
The tournament is a double elimination tournament, as you hear the announcer saying, but Iceland and the Mighty Ducks still play each other in the championship, even though they both lost one game. [Yes, it is double elimination. That means you loose TWICE before you are thrown out of the tournament, or, 'eliminated twice.']
Edit
There is no possible way that within the 30 second time-out the ducks took, to have what "goldberg" and "russ" do, which was switch pads. There is no way that "russ" could've put on the leg pads, blocker, glove, and other pads in 30 seconds. [They don't switch pads, Goldberg still has all of his on for the rest of the movie. They just take out Goldberg and strap pads onto Russ.]

The Ducks have their press conference at the Coliseum, they hang out in Beverly Hills, Bombay is staying in Malibu, and the team's practices and games are in Anaheim. These locations are MILES apart; it would take Bombay over an hour to get from his rented house to practice. Not very good planning on Hendrix Hockey's part. [When Bombay is walking into his new place, he specifically asks the Hendrix guy if he shouldn't be closer to the ducks.]
Edit Corrected by wolfchild
Checking isn't permitted at this level of hockey. [Checking IS allowed at this level of hockey, unless it is a girls league, which it isn't.]
Edit
When the USA are facing Germany Hall calls for the "Flying V". When they start off the "Flying V' Hall is at the front, leading the "Flying V". But when they are about to score the person at the back of the "Flying V" has the puck and the commentator mentions Hall has the puck, he shoots and scores, Hall has scored. [Right before Hall scores the announcer says that the person at the back passes to Hall and THEN Hall scores.]
