Peter Puck

Peter Puck

Peter Puck is a hockey puck-shaped cartoon character. The puck, whose animated adventures appeared on both NBC's Hockey Game of the Week and CBC's Hockey Night in Canada during the 1970s, explained ice hockey rules, equipment and the sport's history to the home viewing audience. The voice of Peter Puck was provided by Ronnie Schell. The animation was produced by Hanna-Barbera[1] studios. Nine episodes, each approximately three minutes long, were broadcast between periods of NHL hockey games.
