Hockey: A People's History

Empires on Ice (1915-1929) (1x3)

Air date: Sep 24, 2006

Hockey goes to war. Young men fight overseas and women take their place in pro hockey. The Maple Leaf goes from the battlefield to the rink as Conn Smythe returns from the war to build a hockey empire in Toronto. As a nation comes of age, hockey takes its place on the international stage at the Olympics in Belgium and the new Madison Square Gardens in New York.
