numb3r 16 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Anyone know any good books with some interesting stories? I've been hearing a lot about Gretzky's new book but some of the reviews ive read have said that it gets a bit boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 1 hour ago, King Heffy said: "The Game" by Ken Dryden "Net Worth" by Alison Griffiths and David Cruise Read "The Game". Definitely a good look into what the game of hockey was like in the 70s. Didn't read "Net Worth", but watched a movie based on the events of the book. Also an interesting topic. If you're interested in a Canuck one, "A Season to Remember" by Grant Kerr was a book about the 2010-11 season. A bit sad to read (seeing as we know the ending), but it's always nice to relive the glory days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cramarossa Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Perhaps not all of the same level as some of the ones listed above, but I recently read John Scott's autobiography and it actually wasn't bad. He had some interesting stories from his youth and a pretty unconventional path to the NHL. He even had a small bit about how idiosyncratic Millsy is from his time in Buffalo.

G.K. Chesterton Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Has anyone read Ed Willes book The Rebel League: The Short and Unruly Life of the World Hockey Association? I'm fascinated by the WHA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
