Nothing says in your face like a rigged nosed NHL hockey coach spitting profanity at his team of grown up hockey players. Welcome to the show, ladies and gents.
When Road to the Winter Classic premiered on HBO years back with the Washington Capitals and Pittsburgh Penguins, the idea was simple. Give fans an unfiltered take of what goes on behind closed doors. The coaches, players, their homes, locker rooms, meeting rooms, and adventures around their home city and road trips. All access. It delivered and while it lost some of its velocity upon moving to EPIX, the juice of the series is still intact.
