"The DVD has now been released. I watched it last night and am pretty amazed by how good the production quality is for this product. I'm even more amazed about the turnaround time -- the Canes only won the Cup 23 days ago!

The recaps of each part of the season are pretty comprehensive, as are the recaps of each of the series that put the Canes in the Finals. There are good side stories in between those recaps, such as a look into Kevyn Adams's life at home. All the while, clips from interviews with Kaiton, Forslund, Weight, Lavi, etc are interspersed.

I haven't watched the whole Game 7 yet, but it is presented as the NBC widescreen broadcast with all the action, without commercials.

The production quality seems very nice. The picture is very sharp even on my SDTV."

A must for any hockey fan (well, at least every 'Canes fan).

"I have bought one other edition of a national championship-type DVD (the other one being a final four DVD) and the NHL Stanley Cup Champions DVD beats the NCAA Division-1 basketball championship DVD by a long shot. The Stanley Cup DVD contains the entire broadcast of game 7 (no commercials, but also no intermission highlights) of the Stanley Cup Final on NBC and most of the broadcast of the celebration at the end (although I was dissapointed that I didn't see Cam Ward hoist the cup, like that's a big deal). It also includes highlights from the season and each round of the playoffs for the Hurricanes; all of the NHL's My Stanley Cup commercials; random goals and highlights of the playoffs crammed into one small segment; short specials on Hurricanes' players Cam Ward, Eric Staal, Mike Commodore, and Ray Whitney; and some dressing room speeches. With this DVD you'll be able to relive every moment of game seven, along with the best of the season and the playoffs, over and over again. I went to Game 7 and although this DVD doesn't beat being at an NHL game, it beats every other sports DVD that I've seen."

"I picked this DVD up today at the Hurricanes team store. It is put together very well and does has some nice special features. I don't have the box on hand, so I can't provide exact features, but the most important one is that it DOES have the entire game seven broadcast.

I know that a lot of people were wondering about this, so I thought I would share.
