"Hockey won't hold still to give you a better look" - HBO 24/7 Penguins Capitals final scene

Wonderful closing scene from the 4th and final episode of HBO special "24/7 Penguins - Capitals: Road to the NHL Winter Classic", that describes the game of ice hockey.

Notes about documentary:
"HBO aired a four-part documentary chronicling the preparation of the two teams for the game as part of its award-winning sports series 24/7. The first episode aired on Wednesday, December 15, 2010 at 10 p.m. ET, with three additional episodes following each subsequent Wednesday. The series chronicled each team's seasons leading up to the Winter Classic, and emphasized the rivalry between Crosby and Ovechkin and between the Penguins and Capitals."

@kmathewsable Tell me about it... ;I

I had money on them for the last game, never thought it could be a sweap..

This clip honestly gives me chills every time I watch. On game days I have to watch it before the CAPS take the ice. Bottom line, if you have to ask, you will never understand...... Hockey is an addiction. This truly was a work of art by HBO and better than any Hard Knocks or 24/7 they have ever made. Liev is a great narrator, even if he was 'Sabertooth' in x-men........ C! A! P! S! CAPS! CAPS! CAPS!

I cried like a baby the first time I saw this. I am not a Pens or Caps fan, but I will always be reduced to tears...because this sport is that good. This sport is the best sport on the face of the earth.

It's a great day for hockey.

Wait for another hot rivalry, 14th December - first episode of HBO 24/7: Flyers vs. Rangers will start at 14th Dec. Think about that, ladies and gentlemen.

Anybody who understands that hockey is more than a game will shed a tear watching this <3

This footage is absolutely stunning. The words that go along with it, the music, the slow motion hd. Its incredible. As a die hard hockey fan this almost brings a tear to my eye. I'm not a fan of either team. But seeing this show made me love the players. The pranks, the jokes, the intensity from these 2 great coaches. And more importantly added more love to the game for me that I never thought possible. Didn't think I could love the game anymore. But I do. Thank you HBO.
