Donald Duck is skating on a frozen duck swamp (at one point mocking Sonja Henie, an Olympic figure skater and popular movie star at the time), when he spots his nephews playing ice hockey too roughly. He shows his nephews the moves that won him his ice hockey trophy. But the boys have a few moves of their own, and chaos ensues.
The short was released on May 18, 2004, on Walt Disney Treasures: The Chronological Donald, Volume One: 1934-1941.[2]
