Watched the first two (of ten) episodes Sunday night on CBC. I thought it was quite good. I especially found interesting the segment on the Patrick brothers and the influence they had on the development of the modern game we know today. As a west coaster it's somehow gratifying to know that our region made several significant and influencial contributions to the game of hockey.

In any event, the opening two episodes of the series already has me hooked so I now know what I'll be doing on Sunday evenings for the next few weeks.

Here in Alberta they've been showing episodes all week, but I believe they've been repeats of the first 2 or 3. I am impressed with the show so far as well. It gives great insight into how the modern leagues were developed, player development, and economic impact.... I've learned a few things about hockey's history that I did not know before and can't wait to see the remaining shows!! :thumb:
