Minnesota is the heartland of US hockey, creating more skaters -- on the local rinks and in the NHL --than any other state. Here, the senior boys of rival towns -- one an emerging dynasty, the other with a fabled past -- face down uncertain futures as they skate for a last chance to etch their names into local lore. Where Texas football has Friday Night Lights, Minnesota high school hockey has Hockeyland.

Reviews
Two huge gifts a documentary filmmaker can receive are access and good timing. "Hockeyland" director Tommy Haines had both.Chris Hewitt, Minneapolis Star Tribune
It's near impossible not to get caught up on the fervor of it all, and we're simply observers; imagine living this life -- that's what this movie does.Steven Prokopy, Third Coast Review
