TORONTO (January 20, 2026) – Crave is bringing hockey fans closer to the beloved game with its original docu-travel series HOCKEY FANATICS. Hosted by Dave Foley, the series launches February 6, with all eight episodes available to stream on Crave. HOCKEY FANATICS follows Foley and special celebrity guests as they travel across North America to explore the passion, culture, and heart-stopping action of hockey fandom. From creator, showrunner, and director, Alex Scrymgeour, each episode of HOCKEY FANATICS takes viewers to a different North American city to explore the fandom around its home team. At every stop, Foley meets up with devoted superfans to chat about what their team means to them; tour the massive collections of memorabilia – even some that homes had to be built around; and learn about the impact the teams make in their communities. Along the way, Foley sits down for a meal with celebrity hockey fans to talk about their love and connection to their team before attending a game together. The teams – and celebrity guests who love them – featured in HOCKEY FANATICS are as follows: In addition to dedicated super fans and special celebrity guests, the series features appearances from past and present NHL players, including Wendel Clark, Terry Crisp, Josh Doan, Sean Durzi, Jim Fox, Mark Fraser, Barret Jackman, Michael Kesselring, Mark Recchi, Luc Robitaille, Stan Smyl, and Peter Worrell.
