Semi-Pro

SEMI-PRO takes you to the front row of the North American Hockey League, which finds itself at a crossroads and is fighting for its survival. The series immerses us in the destinies of the colourful players, coaches and owners who all share the same passion. Semi-pro hockey players were within a hair’s breadth of making a career in the NHL, but here, there’s no hope of climbing higher. They mostly play to get out with their friends and be able to “live their dream…sort of.” For them, hockey is a drug they can’t do without.
