Not sure if HBO knows about them, but the first episode hasn't been taken down yet so that's good.

Exactly. Carlyle is way too old to get on the ice and show the team how to stand still in a box in their own zone for 20 minutes to protect a lead and let the point men pepper their goalie with endless shots. The players just have to be better at playing that useless, godawful defensive scheme.

I'm pretty sure he said "win and you're in," but, yeah, that seemed pretty genuine.

Yeah, I noticed that, too. He keeps telling the guys the same thing over and over again, every game, every practice, etc. It's not getting through and it's time to try a different approach.

They're not supposed to, but, I wonder just how much the media are actually pressing to get to Kessel. He's not exactly known for being particularly good for a sound bite.
Holland's clearly on Team Bernier:

I don't mind RC as much after watching 2 episodes. I like his perspective of "It's your job to be motivated". He seems to keep a good distance from the players.
Dion's pre-game speech was not at all impressive. Totally unnatural and his body language was attrocious. He was obviously nervous and out of his element.
RC is the only one bringing any fire into that dressing room, and the coach can only bring so much. Kadri displays a bit of that on the bench. He may have some leader in him when he grows up.
I would like to see a true on/off ice leader in a leaf uni. This team can play...as RC has often yelled in their faces...but it needs a leader. Dion does a lot of things well, but not motivate his troops.

That sort of sums it up. He's one of those guys that really only provides you with canned answers unless you actually ask an interesting/unpredictable question.

Haven't found the 24/7 stuff particularly interesting... apart from the on-ice stuff, everyone is pretty careful about what they say in front of the camera.
It's also clear how its being directed - as the "have's" (Leafs) vs. the "have me nots" (Wings).
The ACC and all its spit and polish veneer vs. multiple shots of the Joe and extension cords running fans in the room.
Phaneuf and Kadri interviewed driving their Rolls and Audi to games, while the Wings players interviewed are carpooling in a GMC truck.
The Wings going to a Florida bar to eat while the Leafs eat steak in a private room.
I know its entertainment, but its clearly trying to paint a "battle of the classes", which involves a lot of selective editing.
