The film is based on Bill Keenan's 2016 memoir, ''Odd Man Rush'', about growing up in the 1990s as a New York Rangers fan, playing college hockey for Harvard and ending up in minor pro leagues in Sweden and Germany when injuries disrupted his dreams of an NHL career.

''Odd Man Rush'' received generally favorable reviews.
Critics noted the film "is surprisingly sweet and thoughtful for a film that revolves around hockey. It certainly deserves recognition for its nuanced portrait of a side of the hockey world that is rarely shown on screen."


The film was praised for its authenticity with Andrew Parker of TheGATE.ca declaring it "a low-key and charming blend of sports, comedy, drama, and a dash of romance, Odd Man Rush is a pleasant indie movie surprise that feels more like a character driven slice of life story instead of an endless parade of genre cliches...Odd Man Rush is the best in the genre this year." Another critic noted, "The cast provides authenticity that, when combined with the comedic and emotional aspects, creates a film that hits on all the correct notes and successfully translates Keenan’s life story from memoir to on-screen product." Barry Hertz of The Globe and Mail praised the film for "its heart...and engaging sense of irony."
Sports Illustrated called it a "comical coming-of-age story."
