This is going to be pretty awesome!

[SkinnyPupp]

It is going to be awesome. They always do such an amazing job at hyping boxing matches

[stylez2k4]

Not a fan that they did it about Capitals vs Penguins since there isn't really a rivalry there. I think it would've been much better if it was Penguins vs Flyers.

[chun]

Sweet. Nice watch.

Can't wait to get inside the game more, like that mic'd up stuff that they used to do. Some pretty sweet quotes came from it lol

[7seven]

Can't wait, HBO's sports series are amazing. Their NFL Hard Knocks series is by far the best tv I've seen.

It's to promote the Winter Classic, which is Pens vs Caps.

I think he's referring to the picks for the Winter Classic...

[hotshot1]

God damn, Crosby has possibly the most boring personality of any star athlete in sports.

[SkinnyPupp]

I doubt that, but same result I guess :)

You don't even have to be a hockey fan to watch this and appreciate how well done of a show this is

[Bouncing Bettys]

I am wondering how this was received in the states. Hopefully the NHL can land a better TV deal with the help of this.

I've watched almost all the 24/7 Series' before fights - they're all well done. This one is no exception. The Winter Classic doesn't interest me too much - I'm just into it for the inside look into hockey and the players.

BTW I'm surprised no one's noticed or mentioned the narrator:

[chouchou]

great episode. (ep.2)
but does anyone else feel that boudreau does a shit job at pumping his team up?
all he says is 'fucking' every other word. the lack of emotion in his tone is kinda surprising!

[fliptuner]

I don't think anyone cares how much he curses. What I did notice was that during the losing streak he kept saying the same shit over and over. "Show some fucking heart" "You guys are acting like you already lost" "Quit acting like a bunch of prima donna's"

Only towards the end did he actually try a different approach and *poof* streak over.

Of course we didn't see everything but the things they showed in the locker room, just seemed like he kept saying the same shit over and over.

maybe if youre hitting it with your purse. these guys pass harder than most of us shoot... and they are aerial/saucer passes, so most of them made it to their intended target. the issue was stick handling... which is why you saw the coaches telling their players to shoot shoot shoot.


regardless, it was a great series and i hope HBO sees enough results from it to want to do it again. the NHL had to BEG them to do it.

can you imagine if CBC put that much funding into a 24/7 type show between the Canucks/Leafs? Ratings would be through the roof! Biggest hockey market in the world vs best canadian team

[the_rickster]

the cbc wouldnt even pay $100,000 to keep the HNIC theme song. hahaha.

but yeah, it would be astronomical. the canada/usa gold medal game had the highest viewership of any other program in the history of canadian television. a series like this would be amazing. i hope this is the first year of many.

[Tim Budong]

no matter how much funding is put into this, the CBC would never air, cut or edit the program the way HBO did it. It was lots of RAW audio, and emotion that if the CBC were to air it, all the traditional bastards would be all over their ass on it. Don Cherry gives them enough of a hassle, the CBC doesn't need this.

I dont think the regular family would like to hear "BRING IT THE FUCK ON YOU FUCKING PUSSY" at 8pm primetime.

[woob]

Holy SHIT the version of the Star Spangled Banner that plays in the background as the teams step on the ice is epic...

[chouchou]

but my oh my did all that emotion make the series THAT. MUCH. BETTER
holy, that was good. would love a canucks rendition
if anyone is wondering, epic music at 8:26 of the 4th episode is: two steps from hell - heart of courage

[Noir]

I never really thought much of Crosby's rep as a cry baby until I heard him mic'd up for HBO 24/7.

[sonick]

Anybody got a link to a Torrent for part 4 in SD?

[RiceIntegraRS]

for some reason i find it really weird that Ovechkin speaks english on the ice

[TheKingdom2000]

Anybody got a link to a Torrent for part 4 in SD?

apparently you can't post torrent links???
i know because when i did i got points for it

[sonick]

^ Thanks. PM or $$$$$$$$$$ or whatever links work too :P

[bengy]

That's the difference between Canada and USA. People integrate, not try to act and live like they did back in the old country. Also, speaking Russian to the refs wouldn't get him very far, don't you think?

U can't, that's two eps max. Unless they cover......all the playoff teams and it'll cost money. Plus I don't think the NBA/NFL would allow as much transparency as the NHL in terms of their stars swearing and what not, because they are so image conscious.

AND

They already have a NFL version, it's called "hard knocks", its basically 24/7 for NFL training camp, this year was on the JETS.

It would be the entire playoffs. Jets Training camp was great, but just imagine the storylines involved.

I don't think it'll be as dramatic.......first of all I feel like the media will have all the matchups covered already. Espn during playoff time is littered with NFL stuff, there are numerous columns and podcasts talking non-stop about the NFL. But with the NHL, they're showing a side that hardly any casual fan (US and Canada even) has seen, and that makes it unique. I never liked Crosby until watching this (i.e. how he lets Malkin come out last because he played in the "super league", or how he plays PSP on the plane). Stuff like that.

Crosby is one of the best if not the best player in the NHL, captain of his team, good ol Canadian boy...
wins a World Junior Gold, Lord Stanley's Cup, and an Olympic Gold by way of overtime game winner and you like him because he plays the PSP?

:speechless::troll:

Perhaps like is not the appropriate word, I respected him always as a player but didn't really see how he led his teams, partly because I'm a fairweather fan, I was a hatin' on him the whole gold medal game until he scored, and my view of him changed, still not fully on board with understanding y he's that great (as a leader). Like I say, the 24/7 just reveals the different sides of the players, they didn't show too much on Ovy but we still saw that he lives with his parents, and that outside the rink Cooke is pretty awesome.

[hotshot1]

My opinions didn't change on any of them. I still like Ovechkin, dislike Crosby, and think Malkin is an idiot. Also, when they were in Blysma's house, it felt so awkward, as if they were acting for the cameras.

He's the youngest captain in the history of the NHL to lead his team to win a Stanley cup... but some how you don't think hes a good leader? He leads by example on and off the ice every day. To be a leader you don't have to be yelling at your team mates for mistakes. During the show it showed Crosby coaching his team mates numerous times during intermissions. I just don't get it...

Contrary to you, or a big hockey fan, not everyone follows the league with the vigor and energy. I'm predominately a bball guy, I enjoy hockey mainly due to growing up being a Canuck fan, and nowadays I pretty much just watch Canuck highlights and follow their player movements. So why the FUCK can't not fully understand? The fact that he's a captain, and they're playing well, does not 100% prove that his leadership brings results. I know now that it plays a major part, but you know what else brings success? TALENT. When he's not playing for team Canada, why should I focus so much energy on a guy in the East coast and root for him? It's the same when Kesler is on the US team, really like him when hes playing for us, but when hes on the US team, I'm happy when he screws up and his team loses. Same logic.

In my case it's MAF that I didn't think much off until I saw 24/7 who now I am a big fan of.

Gotta love those practice antics like jumping jack saves and shoot-out taunts.

[Greenstoner]

does this series end at episode 4 or what ??

there is no further schedule on HBO site

[Tim Budong]

its a part mini series, so its done for

My take on Crosby. Forget the cup, forget the clutch GOLDEN GOAL. I have to say that the change of heart for me towards crosby had to be last season. He turned his game around. from playmaker to Rocket Richard winner. His goal/assist ratio is almost on par. He played his guts out carrying the pens last year. Disappointing that the Habs knocked them off, but Crosby at the moment is trying everything he can to bring the pens back to the promised land.

[fsy82]

Yeah i got mad respect for Crosby because hes become a major threat to score every night instead of just passing. He's so young, won so much but yet is still improving as a player and person..that is freaking scary for other oppositions.
