Finally, hockey's rabid fans have an anthology of their own, a showcase of writing as dynamic and diverse as the fastest, toughest sport itself. From coast to coast, the blueline to the slot, in the corners, and along the boards, here's the high-adrenaline thrill of hockey at its best, in all its blazing glory. Editor Bryant Urstadt has rounded up a collection of classics old and new that takes you into the locker room, behind the benches with the great coaches, on the ice with the players, and back on the bus when the game is over. You'll hear Mike Richter talk about seeing the ice, tag along with Peter Gzowski as he tries to decode the magic that was Wayne Gretzky at his prime, follow Red Fisher on a last visit to the legendary Toe Blake, and hear from the players who made the "Miracle on Ice" happen at the Olympics in 1980. There's action off the mainline as well, including the travails of a team in Texas, a hard-fought game in Romania, and nights with a junior team in Flin Flon, Manitoba. The most vivid and theatrical of sports, hockey has rarely had quite the comprehensive and professional light shed on the speed, finesse, and grit that make it such an addictive pleasure.

    DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER. I bought this item but no tracking number was given and after two weeks of no delivery and no replies to my messaging, I started the refund process with eBay. My order "order couldn't be canceled because there was an issue with the refund" even though it was the seller who cancelled the sale with NO REFUND. Is this person selling listed items for more $$$ off eBay? Who knows. All the positive feedback duped me. SELLER RESPONDED TO NONE OF MY ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT THEM.
    Follow-up from: r***e- Feedback followed up by buyer.- Feedback followed up by buyer.
    eBay refunded me for the purchase price. I still advise to avoid this seller no matter how much you want what they're selling. Thank you.
