Whoopi Goldberg wouldn't mind lacing up her skates and getting a little ice time.

The actress is a big hockey fan, and had five NHL players film spots for an episode of "Whoopi," her prime-time NBC comedy.

Anson Carter of the New York Rangers and Scott Stevens of the New Jersey Devils are featured in the show airing Oct. 7, the day before the NHL season opens.

"We were all thrilled to know she was a big hockey fan," Stevens said. "So when she asked us to join her for an episode of her new show, we thought it was the least we could do for all the support she gave us."
