I think people are making too big of a deal of them "kicking them out". If it is what I think it is and we're talking about the scene where both Carlyle and Babckock kicked out the crews and ripped into their team, I think there's been an instance in each series where the camera crew has been waiting outside the room while all you hear is the coach screaming (as they are still mic'd).
I would agree that it hasn't been as interesting as the other two though.
Also, complaining about SN editting it is fine (because it is super lame), but the uncensored version is pretty easy to find on a quick Google search, so I'm not sure why people fret about the censorship/some of the pvr cutoff.
I like learning how the coaches deal with the situations and their players, but thus far the only coach I've seen who knows what the hell hes doing is Dan Bylsma. I was supremely impressed.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
If anyone is still out there who thinks even the "uncensored" version is not heavily censored, you are dreaming. David Poile on the Bobby Ryan situation: "we thought this was similar to 24/7 situation where we had editorial review on what was going to be said… caught all of us off guard…"
They just want you to think the HBO version is uncensored.

Do you think by "editorial review" David Poile was thinking the league had input on which camera angles were being used or the pacing of scenes? No. He was thinking "if somebody says something stupid no one will know." That is censorship.

I think everyone knows what "uncensored" means in regards to a television program.

This thread tells me different. There are posters who think the HBO version is uncensored, and Sportsnet is doing the censoring. Sure, they are editing out the bad language, but by the time HBO releases their version, the serious chopping has been done. You'll never see an uncensored version of 24/7. HBO (and the NHL) titillate your with some swearing and what not, but I'm pretty sure there is lots we don't see and hear in the so-called uncensored version..
I only watched the last episode, but Phaneuf came across exactly like the self-absorbed delta bravo I pictured him to be. Except with a hilarious voice.
Phil Kessel looks like a chubby dude who could barely jog across the street for some chips...never mind be an elite athlete. Dude must have some amazing natural talent.
