The Hockey Players (film)

The Hockey Players is a 1937 short film featuring The Three Stooges. It is the 23rd entry in the series released by Columbia Pictures. In this short, Moe, Larry, and Curly attempt to succeed as professional hockey players despite their ineptitude and tendency for slapstick mishaps.

Common comedic tropes employed include physical comedy, mistaken identity, and general mayhem related to the sport. The film is a typical example of The Three Stooges' comedic style.
