The series is centered around profiles on select players – life on and off the ice – as the NHL fans thirst to better get to know their players is as high as ever.

 

This focused series brings the fans almost onto the ice – the players and theory family’s charity work, to know where theory came from and to be along for their journey playing night in and night out in arenas and cities from coast to coast.

 

The series will also engage with the fans – NHL fans have one thing in common: passion. Where they differ is their fan base personality which is defined by legendary players, in-game traditions and its hometown. Each episode will highlight team Super Fans, identify the origins of traditions (example: Colorado Avalanche fans singing “All The Small Things”) and showcase team community engagement. Each episode will feature an NHL player surprise moment with an unsuspecting fan at a team community building event. The show will highlight moments such as the Boston Bruins making their annual Halloween visit to Boston Children’s Hospital dressed in costume.

 

For the fans, the NHL creates experiences that span generations and brings a community together through traditions. Women have long been the keepers of tradition and will be highlighted in this program.

Have a Slovak Dinner
93-year old Evelyn really wanted to meet fellow Slovak, Marian Studenic (@studo.19) at @dallasstars training camp. Marian happily obliged and a result, was able to make a friend for life. 🥺
She even left him with a piece of advice: “Work hard and be the best you can be.” ❤️
