Derek Boogaard, a shy over-sized man, learns to use his fists to make it to the National Hockey League and becomes a renowned hockey enforcer. The hulking 6'7" and 270 pounds Boogaard becomes known as the Boogeyman, and rarely loses a fight while playing for the Minnesota Wild and the New York Rangers. He gets addicted to painkillers from years of damage, and is found dead at age 28 after mixing prescription drugs with booze.

Vince Lombardi, a fiery disciplinarian, seems stuck when he is offensive line coach of a New York Giants team that loses the 1958 championship game. His Giants counterpart on the defense, the cool Tom Landry, is signed to head the Dallas Cowboys after being widely courted. Lombardi practically has to beg to run a Packers team so dismal that other team owners want to fold the franchise. Lombardi turns the team into perennial winners, and gets his showdown with Landry in the 1967 league championship game, known as the Ice Bowl because it is played in 13 below zero temperatures. The Packers win.
