I had already discussed that in a spanish forum some years ago, but I dont' remember seeing that topic here.

Aparently, "Slapshot" was featured in an episode of "Macgyver's", something quite surprising considering the low popularity of the Master System in the states:

Btw, I already realised it was "Slap Shot" when I saw that episode back in the beginning of the 90's

It is Slap Shot, had to check it wasn't Ni****do's Ice Hockey (which would've seemed a more likely choice for a US TV show). Those are similar enough in the graphics that you have to wonder if they were sourced from the same developer (as I think some early sports games for both consoles were?).

The rearview shot is recognizable as Slap Shot's, but the most different point is music. It totally sounds as Master System, not Nes.

Btw, although the pad is almost totally covered, it seems dark, not light grey

Nice catch dude. Now as I see it, I think me and my uncle have seen this scene back in the 90´s. It´s 100% Slap Shot.

By the way, a few months ago I bought Super Slap Shot for the SNES because it looks like a sequel to the Master System´s Slap Shot.

Thanks to the music and the color of the uniforms, we can even know which match is he playing: Yugoslavia-Holland from C Pool League -he is playing for the Balkan team-. And he is on the 2nd period :D
