@TheFourthPeriod: The Amazon NHL docuseries, “Faceoff: Inside the NHL”, premieres Oct 4.
Season 1 has six episodes.
Some of the featured talent includes Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, William Nylander, Quinn Hughes, Matthew Tkachuk, Jack Eichel, Filip Forsberg, David Pastrnak & Jeremy Swayman (among others).
Paul Martin, Executive Producer of Drive to Survive, is also an EP for Faceoff.
They started to meet & chat with the NHL athletes in Feb in Toronto during All-Star Weekend. They’re going to show a type of authentic access we don’t often get or see.
Not a Leafs fan but forever a Mitch Marner sympathizer and defender, and so I had to say something. We are barely into the preseason, and I'm already seeing the complaints and whining about him. They didn't even have anything of substance to complain about, the posts weren't even about his playing. One post was a screencap of him mid-sentance with the coach, and the MAIN complaint about it was "He looks too zesty". Zesty??? That's your problem here? You couldn't find anything else to nitpick, or anything constructive to point out, so you made a post to complain he looks too "zesty" when he talks? ffs. You are a grown man. Keep it together.
The six-part docuseries will show the League's most compelling characters, all at different stages of their careers.
Episode One, called "Best of Rivals," features friends Nylander and Pastrnak discussing the rivalry between the Maple Leafs and Bruins. The season concludes with a two-part episode of Tkachuk and the Panthers' pursuit of the Stanley Cup against Draisaitl, McDavid and Hyman of the Oilers.
Boston Bruins: David Pastrnak, Jeremy Swayman
Colorado Avalanche: Gabriel Landeskog
Edmonton Oilers: Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Zach Hyman
