Making Coco: The Grant Fuhr Story

The documentary is about the life of Grant Fuhr. Fuhr played in goal in ice hockey. He is counted as the sport’s first black star. He won four hundred and three regular season games in the NHL. He spent many years with the Edmonton Oilers. The team took the Stanley Cup four times in five seasons. He went through a serious crisis in mid career. He was suspended for a season over drug use. The ruling cited conduct against the standing of the league. Fuhr came back afterwards. He rebuilt his game. He entered the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2003, and teammates and rivals speak about him in the film. Don Metz directed the ninety minute documentary, a Canadian production finished in 2018.
