Yeah, this one has a hockey theme to it. Joe Vickers has saved his money and bought into the Red Shirts hockey team. Problem is that gangster Gunner Parker owns the other half and he's currently feuding with fellow gang lord Dagger Daniels.
Daniels hates Parker so much he's willing to destroy the Red Shirts to do it. Naturally the Flash has to get involved so he becomes a hockey player and very quickly leads the team to the Manley Cup finals. They hit a snag before the final game when Daniels kidnaps the rest of the team. The Flash isn't bothered, so he throws together a new team of rag tag misfits.
Daniels loses and gives up, but he confess-it's really Parker who's been calling the shots. Yup, Parker just wanted Vickers to sell out cheap.
