    Default Interesting documentary on Netflix about the 2004-06 Danbury Trashers.

    It's called 'Untold: Crime and Penalties' and it's about the 2004-06 UHL minor league team the Danbury Trashers. The owner is the 17 year old son of a mob connected father and it's a wild and crazy ride. Great watch.

    I remember reading about that story a few years ago. I'll have to give it a watch sometime.

    There was a story/interview with Troy Smith in today's Hamilton Spectator about it. He seemed to enjoy his time there

    Netflix documentary tells the tale of the Danbury Trashers. Hamilton’s Troy Smith says it’s all true


    “(A teammate) literally skated up to me and said, ‘Smitty, what are we doing here?’” he laughs. “I said, ‘I’m making pretty good money so let’s get on with it.’”

    Great documentary.

    Love the fact they suggest (more than suggest) The Soprano's were based off the Galante family. The parallel's are something else.

    Funny Pengwin, I had it in the same. And my wife went to bed early a couple nights ago, so I watched it. And then the next morning she's like, 'what did you watch last night?' So I told her about it and she's like 'I would have liked to have watched that too.' Go figure.

    I'm listening to the episode (Spittin Chicklets) right now. Little slow getting to this episode since I busted my phone and had to get a new (temp) one.
