Documentary
Alexandre Daigle was a fairytale solution to all of the Ottawa Senators' many problems, a one-man dream come true for a team and a city that desperately needed goals and fans. The expectations were overwhelming – too much for Daigle to overcome. Now, decades later, following a turbulent career on the ice, Daigle reflects on how he steered the gap between people’s projections and his everyday existence, revealing the pressure and turmoil of not living up to the impossible hype.
