these stories and statistics are so distressing to hear. i can only imagine being in that environment and actually going through it. with how hockey has been portrayed in media recently, i think this book is even more important than ever. we can't forget the reality of the culture, no matter how hard we want to

the part where they compare sweden's hockey system to canada's is very interesting to me. it really does change things when you treat kids like kids instead of coercing them into dedicating their whole life to the sport. it matters that they aren't recognized as these important, mighty figures.

finally reading this and it's already so informative and important. there are so many crazy issues that go ignored in the sport
