Road to the Winter Classic
Is anyone else watching this? I hadn't seen a thread about it and it seems to have received less promotion than the previous editions. EPIX is handling it this year instead of HBO although the producer of the show did work for the original HBO version. This year is the Hawks and Caps. So far it's decent after 2 episodes. Pretty much the same as HBO although the narrator isn't quite as good and the music is so-so. Both Barry Trotz and Joel Quennville are pretty likeable coaches and both teams are fun to watch. Interesting note for episode 2: One of the teams that the Hawks play against is the Flames.
