All Out War

First and foremost,  I apologize in advance for the language. Hockey is a brutal sport and thus the language is harsh. This video, put together by NeutralzoneHD, shows people inside and outside of the sport just how much goes into the sport. It is war, when it comes right down to it. The entire conference is working toward taking the Stanley Cup home with them, and they will do whatever it takes. The music works perfectly with the war theme, and the small pieces of text cuts are perfect in driving the "story" of this video. I was very impressed. It didn't show favoritism for one team, it did a very good job of showing each team and their individual paths to victory. I know for certain I lack the skill it would take to put a video like this together. I also lack very much the skills necessary to do any sort of digital editing, and am impressed when fans out there can to things like this. It carries a message, and drives a point. Hockey isn't just a sport, it's an all out war.

  1. This video's use of background music and slow motion was really interesting and moving. For someone like me who only sees hockey as a sport where people are skating around and hitting a puck, this shows how much more depth the sport has. It really is a great way to reach out and grab emotions of people who even have no soft spot for hockey at all.
