Jersey Cookies Star in HBO's 24/7

Part 2 of 2014 Winter Classic documentary airs tonight

Perhaps one of the best things about the NHL Winter Classic in the last few years is HBO's contribution. Their 24/7 camera crews are granted unlimited access and present the game in a way you've never seen before — unless you've played it professionally.

In last week's premiere episode, we got a quick glimpse at how well the Detroit Red Wings are treated while on the road. For example, every player received a specially made cookie with his name (and number) on it — literally! These jersey cookies were too cool not to share.

The second installment of the four-part series, 24/7 Red Wings/Maple Leafs: Road to the NHL Winter Classic, airs tonight at 10 PM on HBO. This show alone is worth the subscription fee for any hockey fan.

I love these series. They should release this and the previous editions on blu-ray. Many teams tried to duplicate this with their own half hour season long documentaries or webisodes, but it's never done masterfully as HBO. I never really cared for the Winter Classic until I started watching 24/7

The Blue Jackets actually make them and sell them at some concession stands

I and many in Canada without HBO will be missing out on a good program. Too bad a sports station here don't pick it up.

It still hurts seeing Alfredsson in a Red Wings jersey, even if it is in cookie form.

@COLDFOX, I believe Sportsnet is airing them in Canada.

My wife wants to know if they fall apart when you take them home?

COLDFOX:

Sportsnet has picked up the 24/7 series. It airs Sundays at 7:30 after their broadcast of the afternoon NFL game.
