The NHL is getting the “Drive to Survive” treatment, with a hockey series from the makers of the popular Formula 1 show coming to Prime Video in the fall.

New York Rangers defenseman Jacob Trouba reacts after scoring a goal against the Carolina Hurricanes in the second period during Game 5 of an NHL hockey Stanley Cup second-round playoff series, Monday, May 13, 2024, in New York.

It’s another step in the league’s evolutionary process showing more player personalities in a game that has forever been defined by teams and not individuals. The series features two players in the Stanley Cup Final — Edmonton’s Connor McDavid and Florida’s Matthew Tkachuk — along with the likes of Boston’s David Pastrnak, Vegas’s Jack Eichel, Nashville’s Filip Forsberg, Toronto’s William Nylander, Colorado’s Gabriel Landeskog and the New York Rangers’ Jacob Trouba.

Box to Box co-founder and executive producer Paul Martin had never been to a hockey game until last year, knowing only Wayne Gretzky “and they fight a lot” about the sport. His interest was piqued attending regular-season and playoff Los Angeles Kings games, then the Golden Knights’ Cup clincher on the Las Vegas strip last June.

Acknowledging Formula 1 several years ago was in a place that it needed a spark of sorts that the docuseries provided, Martin said he’s not sure if this will transform the NHL or if it even needs transforming. But this has also been a bit of a different process making a show in a sport in which team-first has been engrained forever.
