Default CBC Playoff Opening "For Whom the Bell Tolls"

Nicely done as usual. Rogers better hire the guy that does these.

Great montage, but it's so representative of why CBC isn't going to around much longer.

"Let's hire a full-time employee to make 3 minute video montages once a week!"

Seemed like a great idea with taxpayer money. Private money, however? Not so much.

Enjoy it while you can gents

Knowing cheap-ass Sportsnet, Roger Millions will soon be hosting, doing PBB, splicing video clips and hosting the post-game show.

He scours CBC archives (mostly tape), works on acquiring royalties for music, plans the montage, implements, edits, etc. I can easily see him putting in at least 25-30hrs a week on a montage (if not more).

I don't care how much he was paid or how long it took him, thoroughly enjoyable montage, CBC just has a knack for putting these together.

In a past life, we spent an entire year making a 30 minute video.

This montage is epic.

This is 'the' man's game! The NHL is awesome, the playoffs is trench warfare!

Definitely one of the weaker ones I have seen from CBC.

Agreed. Didn't do much for me compared to other ones which have given me the "chills."

I was in highschool in the early 2000s, and made a similar montage for a "language arts" project in grade 11. Downloaded whatever video was available on napster, edited out the parts I liked, threw a kickass song behind it, and in all of about 4 hours I had a montage.

Surely someone at CBC in 2014 has it a lot easier, and a lot more resources than I had.

Stop being such an angry twat all the time Tyler.
