After his mother's death, 12-year-old hockey prodigy Janeau Trudel relocates to Mont St-Hilaire with his father. There, he befriends Julie, the team's goalie, who dreams of competing in the International Pee-Wee Tournament of Quebec City. However, not all teammates welcome Janeau, especially Joey, the captain influenced by his father's negative attitude. Can the coach, a compassionate figure, lead the team to victory against the formidable Russian team amidst internal conflicts?
