[Chris · Rating 2 out of 5]

So-so young adult hockey biography covering the years 2002 through the end of the 2007 season (the season before the Pittsburgh Penguins lost in the Stanley Cup Final to Detroit). This was of the very "rah rah" sorts of YA books - it didn't touch on the vitriol Crosby faced from parents and players alike, nor did it mention any of the injuries incurred along the way.
