What does Mike Babcock know?

Norman Lloyd to play Don Cherry?

PK Subban, obviously.

 

[dash]

Yes, if Norman Lloyd is not available, PK Subban can play himself and Don Cherry.

He doesn't have to play both. Malcolm Subban can play PK.

Nah, Ryan Hurst ala Sons of Anarchy would be perfect as Burns...

This guy plays Pierre McGuire.

This thread has been a blast to read. Funny.
Yahoo suggests Kevin Spacey to play Bettman. But Spacey should do it only if he impersonates Christopher Walken - cause that's how Bettman speaks - monotone, with a blank look on his face.

Also like Yahoo's casting of Puddy as John Scott.

​

The movie will only be complete if Pierre, Roenick, and anyone else with a microphone, asks John Scott (a minimum of a dozen times), "How does it feel to be here?"

Spacey won't work, I don't know his exact height but he's too tall, especially when you consider that the actor who plays John Scott is probably going to be at least 4 inches shorter than the real John Scott.

Spacey is 5'-11"

They could cast Kevin Pollak as Bettman then. He does an awesome Walken impersonation too (which is my requirement). Pollak is 5'-5".

Willem Dafoe to play Mike Babcock...

Speaking of Walken, he should play Daryl Sutter.

Actually, I always thought Popeye resembled Sutter.

If they make this a musical, they can play "Short People" by Randy Newman.

I can't be the only one who's incredibly doubtful that there's enough here for a full length movie, can I?

Maybe there's a few 'Peter Puck' cartoons they can throw in to stretch out the running time for the movie.

 

[elocomotive]

Honestly (and maybe it's because I love Phil) this is part of the reason I'm not 100% enamored with the Scott stuff.

I don't understand what the bolded part means.

Willem Dafoe to play Mike Babcock...

Why does anyone even have to play Babcock though? Do they really need to show an actor sending a couple of texts?
