- Walter Bush: [after Herb has selected his final roster after one day of tryouts] Herb! Herb! Hey, Herb!
- Herb Brooks: Oh, hey, Walter. How are we doing?
- Walter Bush: I think we have a problem, Herb.
- Herb Brooks: Oh, yeah? What's that?
- Walter Bush: I've got a room full of people back there who want to have a say in this matter, and you've already picked the team?
- Herb Brooks: Look, Walter...
- Walter Bush: No-no! Look, there's a right way to do this job, and this is not it!
- Herb Brooks: And I understand you have a job to do, and if I was in your shoes, I'd be saying the exact same thing.
- Walter Bush: Alright, then. We'll go back inside, and we'll help piece together a hockey team. All of us, TOGETHER.
- Herb Brooks: Walter, that's just not going to happen.
- Walter Bush: Do you realize what the AHA went through to put this whole thing together? The best amateur players in the country on the ice for a week? Not just a day!
- Herb Brooks: Yeah, and I didn't need any of that, because I already know my team.
- Walter Bush: How do you know your team? Those guys have been out there for only a few hours!
- Herb Brooks: Every single one of those players was chosen for a specific reason. I've seen them, I've watched them, and I coached a lot of them, and the ones I haven't, I've spoken with their coaches and scouts in the area. I know who I need to compete, and the team I've chosen is it.
- Walter Bush: What am I supposed to say to the advisory board, the committee?
- Herb Brooks: Tell them the truth.
- Walter Bush: You're putting me in a hell of a spot, Herb. Hell of a spot!
- Herb Brooks: Look, they want me to do a job, I'm trying to do it.
- Walter Bush: ...Alright. I'm going to back you up on this one, but I sure as hell hope you know what you are doing.
