Over six episodes, the show will follow two of the state's top-ranked Class AA boys' high school teams - Eden Prairie and Stillwater - in their race to the Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL) Hockey Tournament, arguably the greatest high school tournament in the country.  From regular season ups-and-downs to a showcase match-up on Hockey Day Minnesota, Dream. State. goes behind the scenes to show all the effort, preparation and teamwork that goes into becoming a top program in the State of Hockey. 

"This is what the State of Hockey is all about," said Jamie Spencer, Vice President, New Business Development & Assistant to the Chairman, Minnesota Wild.  "Nothing rivals the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament and the pursuit of winning the title.  We were inspired to share these incredible stories of hard work, passion and sacrifice that are all part of chasing a dream." 

Dream. State. will dive into the personal stories of hockey players, families and communities. The episodes will also capture the essence of outdoor hockey, the demands placed on a hockey family, and the emotions that surround the final push to the state tournament from the views of players, parents and fans.  Former state tournaments stars, current and former coaches and NHL players will share experiences from their own amazing journeys. 

New episodes are scheduled to run every Tuesday through March 14.  A preliminary broadcast schedule of the show can be found at Stateofhockey.com.  The show is produced by Acowsay Cinema, a story-driven production studio located in Northeast Minneapolis.
