The Hockey Guru

Maybe some teams need a Guru to do better next year (coughoilerscough) but at least there is one for NHL players who have problems with their wives it seems, and who knows if this would actually make a player better…. But that’s just the case with a new film coming out, you may of heard about it and just twigged what I’m talking about. I should’ve said stick, not twigged.That’s right! There is a new Hockey related film out! And it’s a comedy, unfortunately not SlapShot3 but hey it’s got Hockey and Mike Myers! For those of you who do not know this actor, Mike Myers, he is best known for playing the hyped up swinger from the 70’s who is also a special agent and is very well known for his classic OTT British poor dentistry and his main catch phrase of “Yeah baby, yeah!” Also you will more like know him, his voice at least, from the Shrek films as he plays the voice of… Well Shrek.

But moving onto this new film, it already is looking fantastic with the British humour and being Nike Myers he has some jokes similar to the one’s in the majority of his films with a few slit twists to make them fresh. But, HOCKEY! FILM! YAY! I’m guessing you would like to know what’s it is about, well it’s about the Guru called Pitka played by Mike Myers himself. The story is he is an American but is raised outside of the country in India, to become a love Guru who moves back to the States to become a self-help guide, and no thankfully not another 12-step guide, and while in America he gets offered 20,000 Benjamin’s (that’s two millions bucks, a Benjamin is 100 dollar bill) which is a pain in the ass to get rid of) to help the love life of…

Here comes the Hockey tie in…

The love Guru has to help get Darren Roanoke, played by Romany Malco, from the Toronto Maple Leaf’s back with his wife who starts to date L.A King’s Jacques Grande, plays by Justin Timberlake. Because of this conflict between Romany and Jacques with his with in between it affects both of their, or one of, performance in the team. This of course worries the coaches on both teams, one coach is Jane Bullard who is played by Jessica Alba, I’m sure many people will just see this film hoping for another nude shower scene. The other coach is Cherkov which is played by Verne Troyer who is know like Mike Myers for being in the Austin Power’s films playing Dr. Evil’s sidekick/clone called Mini-me.

Cherkov? That’s sound like jer… I better not say what it sounds like.

But anyway the main idea of the film is, love guru helps get Maple Leaf’s star Darren Roanoke back with his wife so that typically the Leafs can win another Stanley Cup! I bet you saw that one coming, but you can see this quite literally:
