Gotta See It: Trick shot cut from ‘Mighty Ducks 2’

Trick-shot

A stuntman on Mighty Ducks II was asked to come up with a move that had never been seen before. They deleted the scene.

To enhance a little slab of cinematic history called D2: The Mighty Ducks, stuntman Brad Perry was asked to dream up a trick shot that never been done.

So he did, and it’s incredible.

Unfortunately, it was also cut from the final film, according to Perry’s 2009 YouTube post titled “Mid-air, 360 ice hockey stickhandling trick (Mighty Ducks 2).”

Yes, we are only discovering this lost gem now, but it’s just as fun to watch 11 years after its invention.

“This was a trick created for a fictitious children’s hockey movie,” writes Perry, who still runs hockey clinics and once appeared in a soft-drink ad with Wayne Gretzky. “Do not attempt anything like this trick in your hockey games, as it may result in a penalty, you being cut from your team or getting killed.”
