Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFilmed at Ice Sheffield in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England.
- GoofsThe entire premise of the series is total nonsense. There is no such thing as a Ice Hockey Academy, or a ice hockey scholarship in the UK. Despite a number of American players in the league, there's certainly nobody recruiting kids from the US to play here.
UK Ice Hockey Academies are just training programs at the local ice-rink. They are not schools, or connected to schools, and don't offer any kind of incentive to join.
Featured review
Depends on the Audience
If this was for a young adult audience, it is sweet in some ways. Although some of the inaccuracies may not be healthy for them. Adult viewers will not be able to survive all the mistake and skewed portrayals.
As others have mentioned, for some reason the main characters were supposed to be 15 years old. Perhaps for the anticipation of more seasons, when they could still be kids. But the actors were way, way past 15. Thus creating a totally unrealistic portrait of 15 year old life, in addition to plot inconsistency.
One girl had an intense relationship with a tall guy with a deep voice in her past, and is now on to another one. But they are all 15? Our main character is receiving offers from European professional hockey teams and he is 15?
Our main female youth appears physically and in some ways socially as a grown woman. Young adult viewers will be confused by this or feel inadequate in comparison.
Most of the parents were the passive dunces, while these 15 year old kids dispensed wisdom and mostly acted on their own. One kid even ruthlessly insults his dad, and the dad has no problem with it.
We are subjected to a contrived and condescending sub plot involving ethnic youth and a struggling, corrupt father. It was cringe-worthy, gratuitous pandering.
Having said all that, I liked the portrayal of our two main kids as deeply flawed, yet capable of redemption. Without this allowance, it would have been a Hallmark feature.
If you don't scrutinize too much, it's basically a cute series that will make you feel good.
