Your End of Hockey Playoff Montages: Love These Videos
((ht: cbssports.com))
For whatever reason, one of the things that separates hockey coverage from other sports seems to be the video montages. And they separate even further with the American and the Canadian versions of said montages.
The reason we bring this up is because this is a snapshot of what we do for a living. We've done countless video highlight montages like this and to get them right is not nearly as easy as you'd think.
With that in mind we offer you montages done by both NBC Sports and the CBC (Canadian Broadcast Company) after last nights Stanley Cup Finals ended with a Los Angeles Kings win.
In this corner, NBC. NBC does a great job with their Hockey coverage and their lead announcer, Mike "Doc" Emrick is the best play-by-play guy in Sports today.
NBC put together their playoff wrap video using an excerpt from a Queen/David Bowie collaboration from the 1980's. "Under Pressure". And they mixed it with game highlights, cutaways and a ton of natural sound/broadcast sound.
It's very well produced and edited:
Now check out what the CBC did. Mind you, this is the end of their 60-plus year run televising the game.
Their montages have always been stellar, a mix of the current with an homage to hockey's past and history.
This is what you should consider a sendoff as much as a look back. We will miss the CBC and we will miss their production of this style video. Consider it a step above what NBC did and does, you know, next level stuff.
As a Video Producer by trade, we admire the editing, the research, the pacing and storytelling. And the music "Superstar", not as well known, but totally fits the story being told.
Enjoy the video and tell us what you think. Do you agree with our assessment? Or disagree....

Rangers Advance To Stanley Cup Finals For First Time In 20 Years
((HT: NHL.com/NBCSN))
And our man-crush on Doc Emrick manifested itself last night once again...
Now, the Rangers wait for (hopefully for them) a seven-game series between Los Angeles and Chicago.
Game 6 is tonight in Los Angeles
