"[8] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 82 out of 100, based on five critics, indicating "universal acclaim".

"[10] Peyton Robinson of RogerEbert.com gave the film three out of four stars and wrote, "Through multi-generational testimony from Black hockey players, we learn about the racism endured by athletes from teammates, coaches, leagues, and fans alike who believe they don't belong in the sport.

The film affords its subjects the same blunt expression that has been weaponized against them, and the result is unfiltered emotional depth that translates poignantly.
