Reviews

[Linn · Rating 4 out of 5]

A fun look at hockey as it once was. Good stories and personal histories of former NHL greats.

[Bradley Proctor · Rating 3 out of 5]

In this book, the author embeds himself in the oldtimers’ tour, mostly of northern and western Canadian towns. Although a number of NHLers make appearances (Bobby Hull, Napier, Shutt, Sittler, Statsny) the primary facilitator of the author’s journalism is Tiger Williams. Worth a read.

A good story about the old-timers hockey tour and stories from the players.
