Description

See below for English description.

Nicolas garde le but pour l'un des matchs de hockey les plus importants de la saison et voilà que la foule se met à hurler de tous bords, tous côtés. Chacun y va de ses conseils et de ses exigences. C'est étourdissant! Nicolas et ses coéquipiers sont décontenancés. Heureusement, Nicolas a plus d'un tour dans son sac et trouve une façon astucieuse de résoudre le problème.

 

With advice flying at him from all sides, Nicolas devises his own clever strategy for facing the best hockey team in the league — and winning the championship game!

Nicolas has his parents, his coach, the other spectators, even his sister doling out advice on how to take on the top team in the hockey league. But all their cheering and all that information is stressing Nicolas and his teammates out. Between periods, Nicolas comes up with an ingenious plan to save the day — and stop every shot on goal! When he shares his winning strategy with the rest of his team, they can't help but come out on top.

Title in English: The Big Game
