• Gordon Bombay : I was like you, Charlie. When I played hockey, I was a total hotshot, tried to take control of every game. I wound up quitting. So I tried the law. Same thing. I rule in the courtroom, but inside, I'm a mess. I started drinking. Man, I was going down, but then this great thing happened. Maybe the best thing ever. I got arrested and sentenced to community service. And there you were, Charlie and the Ducks. And as hard as I fought it, there you were. You gave me a life, Charlie and I want to say thank you. I told Orion about all this when I talked to him about taking over. I told him that you were the heart of the team and that you would learn something from each other. I told him that you were the real Minnesota Miracle Man.

  Charlie Conway : [astonished]  You did?

  Gordon Bombay : [nods]  I did. So be that man, Charlie. Be that man.

• Coach Orion : You're playing hard. I'm proud of you guys.

  Luis Mendoza : They're cheap-shotting us to death.

  Coach Orion : I know they are. I know they are.

  Lester Averman : It's going to take a miracle for us to hold on.

  Dean Portman : [enters the lockeroom reading his scholarship]  Dean Portman is awarded a full athletic and academic scholarship to the Eden Hall Academy. I had this lying around the house in Chicago, my attorney thought I should sign, I agreed. It's official boys. I'm back!

  Charlie Conway : [aside to Orien]  Bombay.

• Gordon Bombay : [to the board]  These scholarships, an offer, became a binding contract upon the signatures of the recipients and acceptance by the Ducks. They cannot be voided except for cause which I guarantee you, you have none. Should you decide to pursue their cancellation, I will slap you with an injunction. I will tie this matter up in court for years until long after these kids have gone on to college. And I will collect damages. I will win because I am very, very good. You know why I'm so good? Because I had a good education. You gave it to me and you're gonna give it to these kids.

  Coach Orion : [to Charlie]  He is good.

  Charlie Conway : Just getting started.

• Charlie Conway : [after Cole steals Charlie's lunch]  Oh, come on, my mommy made me brownies.

  Fulton : Yeah. Fresh warm ones.

  Rick : It's too bad about your bash brother. Heard he was too scared to leave home.

  Fulton : Portman ain't scared of nothing.

  Cole : Phew! What the hell kind of brownies are these ?

  Charlie Conway : I gotta tell her to stop using the horse turds in the recipe.

• Charlie Conway : [Gordon has set Charlie's alarm for 6AM]  Go away.

  Gordon Bombay : Can't do that. Come on.

  [flips Charlie and his mattress over] 

  Gordon Bombay : Get dressed, Charlie.

• Coach Orion : Hey, Charlie, we're really backed into a corner here. We hold them for two minutes, we got ourselves a tie.

  Charlie Conway : We're up to it, Coach.

  Coach Orion : I know you are, but you deserve to win. Not careless, but not too careful either. If you see your shot, take it. Make sure it counts.

  [puts a "C" on Charlie's jersey] 

  Coach Orion : Go get 'em, Captain.

• Charlie Conway : Goldberg! Goldie, I knew you could do it!

  Goldberg : Don't ever do that to me again!

  Charlie Conway : Goldberg, you scored. We win!

• Charlie Conway : The school looks stuffy, but we'll loosen it up. Huh, Coach?

  Gordon Bombay : [sighs]  I'm not gonna be your coach this year, Charlie.

  Charlie Conway : Yeah. Very funny.

  Gordon Bombay : I just got the official word. The Junior Goodwill Games Committee has named me Director of Player Personnel. I'm gonna be in charge of their junior hockey program worldwide.

  Charlie Conway : Well, don't go.

  Gordon Bombay : Charlie, I can't pass up this opportunity.

  Charlie Conway : But you can pass us up, right? I mean, you dump us in some stupid school and now...

  Gordon Bombay : I'm not dumping you anywhere. Eden Hall is a great chance for you. Charlie, I will always...

  Charlie Conway : Coach, please... don't go.

  Gordon Bombay : Charlie, I know it's hard. I... I understand what you're going thr...

  Charlie Conway : No, no. No, you don't understand. You obviously don't even have a clue.

  [walks away from Gordon] 

• Charlie Conway : How about it, Cowboy Roundup?

  Connie Moreau : Hey Charlie, shouldn't we wait for the new coach to mess around?

  Charlie Conway : This is how we practice. Duck hockey, Connie. He will have to get use to it sooner or later.

• Linda : [to Charlie]  Hi. Uh, will you sign a petition?

  Charlie Conway : Uh... uh, yeah, sure. What's it for?

  Linda : We're demanding the board change the demeaning Warrior name.

  Charlie Conway : Well, "Warriors" isn't so bad, is it? I mean, you got the Indians, the Braves, the Redskins, the Blackhawks...

  Linda : You're a jock, aren't you?

  Charlie Conway : Yeah, I play hockey. In fact, I'm the captain of the new J.V. team.

  Linda : Forget about it. All you Warrior jocks stick together.

  [walks away] 

  Charlie Conway : But I'm not a Warrior, I'm a Duck.

• Coach Orion : [as he introduces himself to the team]  My name is Coach Orion. You can call me ""Coach'' or "Coach Orion.''

  Charlie Conway : Well, you can call me "Charlie.''

  [the rest of the Ducks laugh] 

  Coach Orion : That must be what that "C'' on your jersey stands for, huh? It sure doesn't stand for "captain."

• Charlie Conway : [to Hans]  School is a nightmare, especially our new hockey coach. Have you ever heard of Ted Orion?

  Hans : Yes. Yes, h... he left the North Stars when he was still in his prime.

  Charlie Conway : This guy is no Duck.

  Hans : Perhaps you should show him the way, Charlie.

  Charlie Conway : [chuckles]  He doesn't exactly seem open to new learning experiences.

  Hans : The question is, are you?

• Coach Orion : [to Charlie]  Where's the one place you never want to clear the puck?

  Charlie Conway : It looked open.

  Coach Orion : Just answer the question, Conway.

  Charlie Conway : Listen, I'm not a defenseman, I'm a scorer!

• Adam Banks : [after Adam crashes into Charlie and they crash into the net; the two of them start fighting]  Yeah, nice takedown. You'd be in the box.

  Charlie Conway : Go cry to your rich parents!

• Coach Orion : [to Charlie]  You got two choices, Conway: take off the jersey right now or you don't play.

  Charlie Conway : You're breaking up the best thing any of us ever had.

  Coach Orion : Well, it's time to grow up.

  Charlie Conway : Grow up? Like you, huh? A washed-up pro who has to show off to a bunch of kids. Geez, that's real grown up.

• [before the Ducks face off against the varsity team the morning after being stiffed on the dinner check] 

  Adam Banks : They didn't tell me until it was too late. Charlie, believe me.

  Charlie Conway : Yeah right, preppy.
