Mr. Hockey: The Gordie Howe Story

本片根据真人真事改编，45岁的传奇冰球运动员Gordie Howe（Michael Shanks，《星际之门》）退役后在妻子Colleen（Kathleen Robertson，《铁皮人》）的帮助下重返赛场，并且和儿子一起夺得冠军，这在冰球历史上绝无仅有。此外，Colleen也是历史上第一位女性体育经济人。

Hallmark Channel, Brightlight Pictures and Inferno Pictures have forged an unprecedented partnership to reignite the incredible legacy of Gordie Howe who, at age 45, returned to the ice after his retirement for the opportunity to play professional hockey and win a championship with his sons. The extraordinary true story is brought to life in the U.S. Television Premiere of the Hallmark Channel Original Movie, “Mr. Hockey: The Gordie Howe Story,” Saturday, May 4 (9p.m. ET/PT, 8C). Michael Shanks (“Stargate SG-1″) stars as Gordie Howe and Kathleen Robertson (“Beverly Hills 90210″) stars as “Mrs. Hockey,” Colleen Howe in the inspiring family drama based on a true story. The film is dedicated to Colleen who used her incredible strength and resilience to broker the deal of her husband’s amazing return to hockey and remarkably become the first ever female sports agent.

Regarded as one of the greatest hockey players of all time, Gordie Howe (Shanks) was finished playing hockey after his retirement from the National Hockey League (NHL). When he is offered a contract – brokered by his wife Colleen – to play alongside his sons in the newly formed World Hockey Association (WHA), the 45-year-old legend prepares for a surprising comeback. Together with sons Mark (Andrew Herr) and Marty (Dylan Playfair) and the support of his wife Colleen (Robertson), Gordie relocates his family and returns to the rink to play professional hockey with the Houston Aeros. Though many skeptics label this as “the biggest publicity stunt in hockey history,” Gordie proves his critics wrong and attempts to accomplish the unthinkable of playing professional hockey and winning a championship with his sons. For one of the most beloved and iconic professional hockey stars of his era, this is Gordie Howe’s second chance to once again become “Mr. Hockey.” As the Howes hit the ice, they come together to discover the power of family, courage and faith.
