PAUL NEWMAN IN SLAP SHOT

I have been slow to the mark in commenting about the death of actor Paul Newman last week. While he's appeared in many great roles -- The Hustler, The Color of Money, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid -- the one role I'll remember him for is as the player/coach in Slap Shot.

Since this is also the opening weekend of the NHL season, I thought there was no better time to show this scene from Slap Shot, in honor of Newman. Enjoy.
