Hockey Fan!
When I first saw this series on ESPN years ago when I was in middle school, I’ve always wanted to find where to get it. Thanks to Amazon, I am a very satisfied and extremely happy with my purchase. This collection, season one and two, really brings you to understand how the game was formed and how players really affected the game we know today. It is a must have for any hockey fan!

Terrific storytelling and goose-bump material throughout.
Whether you even like hockey this is a must see, for any Canadian or sports fan period. The narrator is terrific and his presence puts this series one edition in the pantheon of something you can watch over and over throughout your life.

A DVD set that any hockey lover should own
First, I never get tired of watching this DVD set, and I must have viewed at least 10 times in its entirety. The series is broken down by different points and times of hockey history . .The time when hockey was in its infancy and just getting started, to the time up to WW2. After that, it goes up to the time of the last year of the Original 6, and then finally the post expansion period. During each period, a number of hockey greats are interviewed for about a 3 to 5 minute clip on their formative years and hockey career. By no means is each players’ life and career a very detailed piece, but it is VERY entertaining nonetheless. Hearing how Ted Lindsay, Glenn Hall and others grew up in that time period and sharing stories of the NHL in the 40’s and 50’s is VERY engaging and is a joy to watch. The only complaint that I had with the DVD set is that for the period after the 67 expansion, I thought Bernie Parent should’ve been part of that group. Bernie is omitted even in the second set (which is a drop down in enjoyment, but is not really a reflection of #2 as it is of the overall quality and production of the first set), and for someone who was very instrumental in two consecutive Stanley Cup championships, I thought it was kind of a big omission. Otherwise, I highly recommend this series to anyone who is a hockey fan. Top notch production, musical score and historical information can adequately describe this set.

I bought a used copy and it have a fair bit of skips, but as for the DVD itself it’s editing is horrible. If you are buying this after seeing it on tv over a week you will soon notice that the DVD version is missing so many parts. It’s very unfortunate because I have been wanting to buy this since it’s aired on TSN.

Any fan of hockey will want this set of dvds. All the legends are here with their stories some of which I had heard before, and some that I didn’t know. It is a close up and personal look at hockey’s storied history told by the men who made it! If you buy one dvd on the history of hockey make it this one!!
