Mistake Revealing: When Adam comes in and says "when I woke up this morning, the pain was gone", Connie is mouthing his lines behind him.

Mistake Revealing: In the final game against Iceland scene, there is a point where you can see that the people in the stands are actually cardboard cut-outs.

Mistake Continuity: When Julie Gaffeny knocks the 2 Iceland players over, she is ejected from the game. But later, after Adam scores the goal, The Iceland player winds his stick up over his head and crushes him, yet he only gets a 2 minute minor penalty.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": At no time can a player on the ice play without a helmet. It may be legal in professional hockey, but never in youth league games, world championships or not (This happens when the goalie comes out of the crease and takes his mask off to shoot his "knuckle-puck", as well as the penalty shot in the first movie.)

Mistake Continuity: Jesse and Averman walk off the platform twice at the conference that Iceland breaks up.

Mistake Continuity: When Bombay and Stansson are playing one on one, there is one point when Stansson takes a backhand. In this shot, the blade on his stick is a righty. In all the other shots during this scene, he is a lefty.

Mistake Continuity: Team USA is competing in the Junior Goodwill Games, yet in one newspaper shot their picture appears under the heading 'Olympics'.

Mistake Continuity: The first time they play Iceland, Fulton takes a slapshot. When the goalie makes the glove save it hits him in the top part of the glove, where his fingers would be, but when he pulls his hand out the puck mark is in the middle of his palm.

Mistake Continuity: In the Big Game against Iceland, the referee snaps the puck at center-ice to start the period. When he snaps the puck he is there, but one second later he is nowhere to be seen.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": During the big game in Iceland, I counted about 20 charges of cross-checking, 10 of roughing, a couple of tripping and slashing and a host of others. Any referee with the brains God gave a baboon would have caught those calls.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene near the end, during the final game, there's a woman in the stands with a white top on, but in a following shot the same woman is wearing a blue top.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where the old ducks meet their new team member and then the Zamboni is crashed through the boards, you can easily see a fog machine set up in front of the Zamboni.

Mistake Revealing: When they take a snapshot and it spins, then lands on the USA Today front page, like "Bombay Leads Team USA!" and they have his picture there... the words underneath the pictures all of the times they do this never match the story. They are just random articles that are talking nothing about hockey.

Mistake Factual error: One Icelandic site-watcher said: This so called hockey team from Iceland is not from Iceland. Their language could be Russian for all I know, but it was not Icelandic.

Mistake Continuity: In many of the game sequences players are simultaneously on the ice and on the bench. It happens most often with the kids that are not focused on so much, like Guy and Connie, but also sometimes with players like Charlie and Adam. Sometimes it's hard to tell if it is a montage and there has been enough time for the players to change, but at other times it's blatant. For example when Adam is hit on the wrist by the Iceland player you see Connie stand up on the bench and yell, but in the very next shot she's standing next to Adam asking if he's okay. And in the street hockey scene, when the puck is thrown back after hitting the car and Charlie scores a goal you see a reaction shot of the team celebrating. Charlie is visible at the bottom of the screen kneeling and cheering.

Mistake Continuity: In the final game, Coach Bombay calls a time-out and supposedly that is where the switch of shirts between Russ and Goldberg takes place, so that Russ can fool the Iceland team and take his "knucklepuck" shot. However, when the timeout is called there is an overhead shot of all the Ducks, and you can see Goldberg in the center, facing Bombay, and Russ on the left of him (you can tell it's them buy the helmets and names on the shirts). After a shot of the Iceland team, it goes back to another overhead shot of the Ducks leaving to go back into play. None of the Ducks have changed position or barely moved, not even Russ and Goldberg, who need to move and trade shirts, which indicates that the shirt trade never happened.

Mistake Factual error: Goalies are not allowed to pass centre.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where an Iceland player crashes into the goalie and the puck supposedly goes in the net for a goal, when the camera switches to the overhead shot there is no puck going into the net.

Mistake Continuity: When Gordon walks into the locker room for practice (which Ms. McKay cancels) there are hockey pucks set next to each other on the players stools in front of their lockers. In the next shot where Ms. McKay tells Gordon she has cancelled practice, the pucks are stacked on top of each other.

Mistake Revealing: During the penalty shot for Jesse Hall Number 9, notice he is right handed, as the camera changes.. the person doing the shot is shooting with a left stick, however when Jesse cheers, its back to right.
