Has to be Charles Coleman's The Trail of the Stanley Cup book set.

EDIT: I was reading "doc" more broadly and was erroneously including print media.

I think Hockey: A People's History was trying to do it, but was quickly forgotten after it first aired.

I’m Swedish, I haven’t seen his baseball documentary, but I think it would be hard to find hockey documentaries “on par” with something by Ken Burns.

Would however love to see an Adam Curtis take on how Sigmund Freud’s Canadian aunt’s theory on the psychology of violence, Ayn Rand, the Austrian School of Economics and PM Joe Clark’s spin doctors shaped the history of hockey as we know it.
