2th Episode: Andrew Goes Organic

Andrew Ference, an eco-warrior and NHL hockey player, offers a rare glimpse into his sustainable lifestyle in the new 10-episode web series Beyond the Puck.

Inspired by his friend, environmentalist David Suzuki, Andrew has embraced an eco-friendly way of life at home and on the road. He’s achieved the ultimate victory in hockey — winning the Stanley Cup — and is ready take on the challenge of inspiring others to care about the planet.

The New Ice Age: A Year In the Life of the NHL.

Classic documentary series episode 1: Making It, focuses on dealmaking around the June 1997 draft.

In October 1998 an extraordinary documentary series dominated Canada’s TV screens. Six ground-breaking one-hour documentaries took viewers inside the world of NHL hockey. Only the full co-operation of the NHL, the NHLPA, the owners, general managers, coaches, agents, and players throughout the league made this possible, taking the viewers – and now the readers – into many private meetings normally out of bounds to cameras and writers.
