YMMV / Shoresy

Go To

  • Aluminum Christmas Trees: Dolo slugging a heckler from the penalty box is real footage from Diaby's career in hockey.
  • Crowning Moment of Awesome: In "The Man Advantage", the NOSHO officials suspend Shoresy for the last game of the season as punishment for slugging another player because it's 'not good for the game'. Nat proceeds to make a speech about how they don't decide what's good for the game that convinces them to reverse the ruling.
  • Ensemble Dark Horse: Big Sexy is one of the most popular characters.
  • Everything Sounds Sexier in French: The prolific use of "fuck" makes the Quebecois "Tabarnak!" sound downright lovely to an English audience, even though the two words are pretty much exact equivalents for each other.
  • Heartwarming Moments: Near the end of "The Man Advantage", the main cast, the Policettis and Lawrence Leboeuf all dance together at the Coulson. Everyone's clearly having a ball and it's great to see.
    • In "Accountability", Shoresy shows up to the calendar shoot having got a spray tan. Everyone laughs at him, but Nat asks why he got one, and Shoresy says that after everything Nat did to keep the team going, he's willing to do whatever she needs him to do to help, so if she says to do a calendar shoot, he'll pull out all the stops.
  • Ho Yay: Shoresy constantly calling Fish ugly just looks like Shoresy being Shoresy. Shoresy calling Fish ugly and then saying he'd happily watch Fish getting his dick sucked makes it all look like Shoresy's trying to pretend that he's not attracted to Fish.
    • Also between Danis (NOSHO commissioner) and Miig. Danis directs several flirty comments in Miig's direction and Miig seems pleased with the compliments.
  • Tear Jerker: The scene toward the end of season 1 where the Bulldogs realize they can't beat the Sault and go out and "give 'em the lumber" and have a great time on the ice instead, believing it's their "last game in this barn." Fans on Reddit say that the use of Tobias Jesso's "True Love," a sentimental piano-driven ballad, did a lot to enhance the bittersweetness of the scene.
