  • "Ce court métrage d'animation, avec humour et nostalgie, ressuscite l'époque des années 1940 où tous les jeunes étaient subjugués par leur idole, Maurice Richard. L'écrivain Roch Carrier n'y échappa point et il nous livre ici les impressions et les sentiments d'une enfance empreinte des modèles du temps."
  • "In rural 1940s Québec, a boy is mortified when his mother orders him a new hockey sweater from a catalog, and due to a mix-up, he receives a Toronto Maple Leafs sweater instead of the sweater of his beloved Montreal Canadiens."
  • "An animated version of a short story by Roch Carrier, set in the rural Quebec of his boyhood. Carrier recalls the passion for playing hockey which he shared with the other boys of his community.

  • "Bestselling author Roch Carrier narrates a mortifying boyhood experience in this animated adaptation of his beloved story, "The Hockey Sweater." In the 1940s, in the rural village of Saint Justine, Quebec, listening to the hockey game on the radio was a Saturday night tradition... and so was rooting for the Montreal Canadiens. All the boys worshipped the star player, Maurice "Rocket" Richard, and proudly wore the number 9 emblazoned on their sweaters. The boy in the story outgrows his hockey sweater, so his mother writes to "Mr. Eaton" for a new one. But instead of the coveted red, white and blue of Les Canadiens, the company sends a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey! Imagine the young player's chagrin when he shows up at the neighbourhood rink in the blue and white colours of the arch-enemy! The Sweater has universal appeal for children and adults alike."@en

Set in the rural Québec of his boyhood, it recalls the passion he and the other boys had for the game of ice hockey and in particular their enthusiasm for the Montréal Canadiens and their star player, Maurice Richard. He then tells of the time his mother ordered him a new hockey sweater, which arrived in the colours of the Toronto Maple Leafs, their hereos' arch-rivals. His mother's inability to understand the importance of the issue and her insistence that he wear the sweater caused him great embarrassment, culminating in an outburst of anger on the rink for which he had to ask forgiveness in church.

  • "In this animated film, set in rural Quebec, a young boy argues with his mother over the replacement of his favorite hockey sweater, similar to that of his revered Montreal Canadiens, with one worn by their arch-rivals, the Toronto Maple Leafs. The boy thinks only of disloyalty and the ridicule of his peers; his mother considers only the impracticality of returning the sweater. Combining humor and nostalgia, this film depicts some of the universal fears and joys of childhood."
  • "In this animated short, Roch Carrier recounts the most mortifying moment of his childhood. At a time when all his friends worshipped Maurice "Rocket" Richard and wore his number 9 Canadiens hockey jersey, he was mistakenly sent a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey from Eaton's. Unable to convince his mother to send it back, he must face his friends wearing the colours of the opposing team. This short film, based on the book The Hockey Sweater, is an NFB classic that appeals to hockey lovers of all ages."@en
