Sunny the Skunk's forest friends have started a hockey team! They have a big game coming up against the Coyotes, but they don't have a goalie! Sunny is ready to step in and help her friends, but she doesn't know how to skate or play hockey! Can Sunny master the art of hockey before the big game, or will they have to rethink their strategy? A charming story of hard work, dedication, and friendship that celebrates Canada's favourite sport!
