In this episode of Entertain This, we lace up our skates and break out of the penalty box for this frosty nostalgia of “The Mighty Ducks” – because nothing says ‘heartwarming family fun’ quite like a bunch of ragtag kids turning a washed-up lawyer into a redeemable coach. Join us as we salute the film’s oh-so-predictable underdog triumphs, complete with hockey puck physics that somehow defy logic, all while admitting it’s impossible not to cheer for those plucky peewees.

Tune in for laughs, light-hearted jabs, and a power play of positivity!
