Box to Box – the production company behind the hit series about Formula 1 racing, along with “Full Swing” on golf and “Break Point” about tennis – is overseeing the untitled project for Amazon, according to The Athletic’s Mark Lazerus.

The six-episode, NHL-focused series will debut on Prime Video in October.

It will follow about 20 players beginning after the 2023-24 season’s All-Star break, per NHL chief content officer Steve Mayer. That list includes Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Sidney Crosby, Auston Matthews, William Nylander, David Pastrnak, Matthew Tkachuk, and Connor Bedard.

“Pastrnak is one of the funniest players I’ve ever sat in a room with,” Box to Box co-founder Paul Martin told Lazerus. “But you want to find that mix. When we look at these types of shows, you don’t want all the superstars, but equally, you don’t want all the journeymen. You want that right mix. You want to look at things from slightly different perspectives.”

Quinn Hughes, Jack Eichel, Jeremy Swayman, Filip Forsberg, Jacob Trouba, and Gabriel Landeskog will also appear on the show.

F1’s popularity has increased significantly in the U.S. since “Formula 1: Drive to Survive” debuted in March 2019. Netflix has released six 10-episode seasons of the series, most recently in February. “Full Swing” began streaming on the same service in February 2023 with eight-episode seasons, the second of which dropped in March 2024.

The NHL has dipped its toes into the docuseries waters before, beginning with HBO’s “24/7: Road to the Winter Classic” in 2011, 2012, and 2014. Amazon’s “All or Nothing” series covered the Toronto Maple Leafs in the abbreviated 2021 season.

Coincidentally, Crave – a streaming service in Canada – also revealed Thursday that it’s producing a docuseries focused on the Montreal Canadiens. “The Rebuild: Inside the Montreal Canadiens” will run for eight episodes and will be available to stream on Crave later this year in both English and French
