I love the HNIC montages. I think it's one of the few things CBC does better than TSN, despite TSN's bigger budget productions. They're really able to capture the spirit of the game, and what it means to Canadians that TSN has never been able to do for me. For some reason, I find TSN's take on Canadian pride fake and over the top. Their WJC coverage is a prime example of that.
