Question

"Let's just try not to get all smelly this time."
What does it mean?

One of characters says like that, watching an ice hockey game.

Answer

Unfortunately I haven't seen the movie, but if someone said this, I would expect it to mean that they don't want to sweat, and therefore smell.
I wondered if something happened the last time they watched an ice hockey game that made them smell.
