The New York Rangers will be featured in the new Amazon Prime series, which releases in the next few days.

The title of the behind-the-scenes documentary in the NHL is: "Face-off" which will premiere on Amazon Prime. Many NHL favorites will be included in the documentary, which gives you an exclusive look at stars like William Nylander and New York Rangers Captain Jacob Trouba.

The series will launch on October 4th globally, the same day the Global Games begin, as the Buffalo Sabres face off against the New Jersey Devils.

"NHL fans will get an unprecedented look at the NHL's biggest teams and stars when "FACEOFF: Inside the NHL," launches globally on Prime Video on Oct. 4.

The six-part docuseries produced by Box To Box and NHL Productions, will show the League's most compelling characters, all at different stages of their careers." The NHL said in a press release.

The six-part series will start featuring David Pastrnak and William Nylander, highlighting the original six rivalries in the NHL. Of course, the iconic Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs rivalry cannot be forgotten.

"This generation of NHL superstars are modern day gladiators unlike anything ever seen before, with big personalities and even bigger play makers, and we have the perfect partners to capture that energy for an unparalleled sports docuseries," said Shaun Alperin, head of content, Prime Video, Canada back in June. "Working with Box To Box Films and NHL Productions we cannot wait to bring to the screen the passion, the intensity, and the sheer excitement of the road to the Stanley Cup final, revealing what fans have only speculated goes on behind the scenes of the world's fastest team sport."

Other players that are set to be featured throughout the docuseries starting next week include Jeremy Swayman, Gabriel Landeskog, Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Zach Hyman, Matthew Tkachuk, Filip Forsberg, Jacob Trouba, Quinn Hughes and Jack Eichel.

This documentary should be exciting, as we get to see Captain Trouba in his everyday NHL life, in what could be his last season in New York.

So not only will we get a behind-the-scenes peek, not seen since the HBO Series detailing the Road to The Winter Classic, but we will also see the modern Rangers locker room.
