Summary: In Flint, Michigan, Evan and Bobby are part of the Strikers, a ragtag hockey team with more losses than wins. Evan dreams of victory, while Bobby prefers fighting. With unreliable equipment and a tardy coach, they struggle to stay afloat. Despite their differences, the boys must unite to find hope and purpose on the ice. Can they overcome their town's misfortunes and personal challenges to discover what truly matters? Strikers is a tale of resilience, humor, and the power of teamwork in the face of adversity.
