CC hockey fans, if you haven’t already seen the recently released film featuring your favorite hockey team, you’ll get your chance over the Thanksgiving holiday.
“Tiger Pride – Eight Decades of CC Hockey,” available on DVD since last month, makes its prime-time premiere on the NHL Network at 7 p.m. EST (5 p.m. MST) Friday, Nov. 26.
The movie, produced by Rival Films, LLC, traces the CC hockey program’s evolution from a rag-tag industrial league outfit in the mid-1930s to its two national championships in the 1950s to its present-day status as a perennial powerhouse in the ranks of NCAA Division I.
Narrated by Mike “Doc” Emrick, voice of the NHL on Versus and NBC, it features rare footage and photographs dating back more than half a century as well as interviews with players, administrators, and other key individuals connected with Tiger Hockey.
The film makes its television debut 2½ hours before the Tigers play host to the University of Alaska Anchorage in the opener of a two-game WCHA series at the World Arena that same night.
A DVD version of the film is available online for $14.95 at http://www.thewchashop.com/category_s/270.htm and http://www.rivalfilms.com/store.
It also can be purchased in person at the Colorado College Bookstore, as well as at the World Arena during all CC home games.
YES! I can’t wait to see this. I will be buying this DVD as well.
OMG is this the one where the right winger went behind the net, cradled the puck, and basically stuck it behind the goalie, top shelf? I’m soo buying the DVD once that comes out just like Scott Franks. Do you thnk it will be available on DVD Box Sets b/c I hear they have a sweet free shipping discount. Oh well if not i’ll just buy it from here. But I don’t see the order link. =
