As a newly formed high school team in Minnesota--the State of Hockey--the Scarlets lacked the talent and experience of their peers, making every game a challenge of will.

With their ice rink looking more like a swimming pool, the trio head home and wait for the colder weather to arrive. To pass the time, they watch TV. They sleep. They eat junk food. They even sing sad songs. But once winter finally arrives, will the friends be in any shape to play hockey?"--
