- Jack: Three balls, two sticks, one corked nose. Snowman? No. Much, much more. I am the Wizard of Blizzard! Hahahahahaha! Now run you little mountain goats!
- [Jack is pelted with two snowballs, which stick to his chest and become like boobs]
- Jack: ...Nah.
- [throws them back]
- Sid Gronic: Okay, first period's behind us. Forget about it, god knows I'm going to try. Look, I know you're just kids. And we're really here to teach you about fair play, sportsmanship, and all that crap. But I am so tired of looking up at that scoreboard, and seeing that we're behind the Devils again and again and again!
- Tuck Gronic: [calms Sid down] Lighten up, dad.
- Sid Gronic: Sorry. History's made by winners, conquerors, barbarians! Now I want you to go out there AND WIPE THE ICE WITH YOUR FILTHY BUTTS! ALL RIGHT?
- [calmly]
- Sid Gronic: Play clean, have a good game.
- Jack: [when he came home] Boy, something smells goo...
- Gabby Frost: You promised him, didn't you? Why'd you go and do that, Jack? How many times have I told you if you're not going to be there, don't say you're going to be there. You know how I knew you promised him? He kept looking at me up in the stands. And after about I don't know the 40th time, I realized he expected you to be there. Jack, I don't care if you get too busy or you flake out on me. Well, I care, but I chose it. I married you. I'll deal with it. He didn't choose this, Jack. One of these days, Charlie is going to score his first goal and you won't see it. Just like you never saw him with the measles, or the time he jammed the Fig Newtons into the slide projector. You know, those things only happen once, then they're gone.
- Jack: I...
- Gabby Frost: Don't, Jack. You said enough.
- Mac MacArthur: Hey, Charlie. Want a lift home?
- Charlie: No, I'm not going home.
- Mac MacArthur: You shouldn't be walking in the middle of the road.
- Charlie: No one's around. I'll be fine.
- Mac MacArthur: Okay. Well, I'll see you tonight.
- Charlie: Why?
- Mac MacArthur: I'm babysitting. Well not babysitting, you're not a baby. We can hang out while your mom Christmas shops.
- Charlie: Oh. All right.
- Mac MacArthur: See you later, Charlie.
- Gabby Frost: Charlie, it's a long drive from Denver. You know he won't be back until late. This drain I don't get it. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. So?
- Charlie: So?
- Gabby Frost: So not turning over your report card right away is a bad sign.
- Charlie: Oh.
- [gives a report card to Gabby]
- Charlie: I'm going to go play hockey in the driveway.
- [then runs off]
- Gabby Frost: Hey, hey, hey! Running away that's another bad sign.
- [takes a look at the report card]
- Gabby Frost: Woo hoo! You may have your father's looks, but you get your brains from me. Yes! Good work, Charlie. Wait till your dad sees this.
- Mac MacArthur: [watching Stevie Ray Vaughan perform on tv with Charlie] Your dad loved this guy. They even played together a couple of times.
- Charlie: Nice to know that he had time for someone.
- Natalie: Come on, Dad, put the head on.
- Natalie's Dad: Okay, Natalie, pack some snow in there. All right, let's go in the house, you guys. Come on, it's getting cold.
- Natalie: I'm going to get you now! Gotcha!
