Hockey

Actor Jay Baruchel has a prominent role in Million Dollar Baby and also appears in (and co-wrote) Goon, another movie that largely revolves around punching people. This comedy stars Seann William Scott as Doug Glatt, a bouncer who starts an unlikely career as a minor league hockey “enforcer” after beating up a player who tried to attack Baruchel’s character in the stands during a game. The climax of the film is a game between Glatt’s Halifax Highlanders and a team called the Shamrocks. The Shamrocks are said to represent this Canadian city, which has a bit of a tortured history in real-life professional hockey. The city was home to the Toronto Maple Leafs’ AHL affiliate from 1991-2005 and two separate AHL franchises called the IceCaps from 2011-17, but all three franchises relocated to be closer to their NHL parent clubs. Even a replacement ECHL franchise named the Growlers folded after the 2023-24 season. Name the city.
