Donald Duck is skating on a frozen body of water (at one point mocking Sonja Henie, an Olympic figure skater and popular movie star at the time), when he spots his nephews playing ice hockey. After criticizing the boys' skills, Donald shows them a trophy he carries with him, proclaiming him the Hockey Champion of Duck Swamp. Skeptical, the boys accept his challenge to a hockey game. Donald easily scores numerous goals against the boys, which causes him to grow increasingly cocky. When he announces that he will face the nephews blindfolded, the boys turn their efforts from hockey to antagonizing Donald. In the ensuing chase, Donald runs into an ice wall, falls down a frozen well, and has a hockey puck shot into his mouth. The boys ultimately hit him into the hockey net hard enough to transform it into a cage that traps Donald like a bird.
