Book Description
For college sophomore Mitch Greyson, determination and persistence are the name of the game if he wants to make it as a professional hockey player. A busy schedule of practices, games, classes, homework, two part-time jobs--and now, working with a tutor to help him pass the class he's failing so that he can keep his scholarship--shouldn't leave him with enough time to flirt with the NHL player in town. But that doesn't stop him.Placed on the injured reserve list until his broken arm heals, NHL defenseman Alex Dean is using the time off to be with his ailing grandfather and get a head start on the book he's been commissioned to write. He doesn't expect to get roped into a tutoring gig, especially not for cocky, smart-ass Mitch.But Alex soon discovers that there's more to Mitch than meets the eye...and he really likes what he sees. Only Alex doesn't dare risk his NHL career by coming out, and a relationship between them would jeopardize Mitch's chances with the organization too.It looks impossible.

Book Description
A bracing call to arms for hockey fans, players, and coaches everywhere Those who have been lured by the the sound of skate blades slicing into fresh ice, by the incomparable speed, split-second decisions, and everything-or-nothing attitude of the game know that hockey can seem like its own world. It's all-consuming and exhilarating, boasting its own language and complex morality code. Yet in another light, that tight community can turn insular; the values of teamwork and humility can manifest as collective silence in the face of abuse and discrimination, issues which have been brought to the forefront of the sport as many share their stories for the first time. In Game Misconduct, reporters Evan Moore and Jashvina Shah reveal hockey's toxic undercurrent which has permeated the sport throughout the junior, college, and professional levels. They address the topic with a level of passion that comes from being rabid hockey fans themselves, and from experiencing its exclusivity first-hand. With a sensitive yet incisive approach, this necessary book lays bare the issues of racism, homophobia, xenophobia, bullying, sexism, and violence on and off the ice. Readers will learn about notable players and activists fighting for transformation as well as those beyond the spotlight who are nonetheless deeply affected by hockey's culture of inaction.Both a reckoning and a roadmap, Game Misconduct is an essential read for modern hockey fans, showing the truth of the sport's past and present while offering the tools to fight for a better future.

Book Description
Ryan Stimson outlines a modern approach to playing fluid, creative hockey based on sound analytical research. He shows you, the coach, how to build a tactical framework from the ground up and illustrates how each aspect of the system links with each other. Part 1 details the overall philosophy behind team play, roster construction, and tactical decisions. "Should we play fast or slow? Which players should play together?" Part 2 takes a modern approach to hockey tactics, using years of quantitative research by Stimson and others determined to find more efficient and optimal ways of playing the game. You won't find a rigid system here, but a set of beliefs and ideology put on the ice that incorporates the highest levels of creativity, fluidity, and support. Finally in part Part 3, a narration of Stimson's coaching experience as he attempts to bring this style of play to life at the 14U level. What works? What doesn't? How does this new approach work when clashing with an old-school coach? Stimson reevaluates everything from names of positions to optimal routes in transition play. This book will appeal to any coach wanting to learn more about analytics, and to any analyst wanting to learn more about tactics. Stimson meets you in the middle and illustrates what can come out of union of the two: Total Hockey.

Book Description
The National Hockey League is celebrating its hundredth anniversary in 2017–2018—but Bob Duff’s The First Season reveals how close the league came to folding in its very first year. Set against the turmoil of the Great War and born out of a ruse to rid the league of reviled Toronto owner Eddie Livingstone, the new league suffered from a series of crises: from a shortfall of quality players due to military conscription, to rival leagues and divided fan loyalties, to the burning down of the Montreal Arena that was home ice to two teams. But despite all this, the league survived—and became the worldwide standard for competitive hockey. With chapters devoted to the first-ever NHL playoffs and Stanley Cup championships, in addition to team and player profiles and vintage black and white photos, Duff’s The First Season is essential reading for every hockey fan, providing real insight about the first generation of hockey heroes.

Book Description
What do we have when the master storyteller, Paul John Hausleben, decides to sprinkle pages with tidbits of all the adventures of his famous and beloved characters? When he adds some tragedy, raw emotion, more than just a touch of sports action and adds a few new characters to the never-ending mix? When he adds some of his wild and unique humor, a little roundabout religion, a few stunning surprises, and then finally, while it is all in the storytelling blender, Mr. Hausleben adds doses of romance and love? We have this magnificent novel, Heaven’s Gain! Heaven’s Gain is the sixth and the final book in the series of The Adventures of Harry and Paul. It is an epic novel of emotional and magical storytelling and it is the memorable conclusion to the many adventures of Mr. Paul John Hausleben’s most beloved characters. This is the pinnacle of Mr. Hausleben’s storytelling magic, from the author who tells stories of common human emotions and everyday life, which always captures our hearts and our minds. As the author honestly states in the Preface to Heaven’s Gain, “I guess that it is time to admit that the two characters are a part of me, as I am a part of them too. In a roundabout manner, I will profoundly miss them.” Because of the master storyteller’s remarkable ability to make his character’s fictional lives so real, and his skill at perfectly capturing the details of life all around us all, readers everywhere agree with him and will have to admit that they will miss them too. Now, with Heaven’s Gain, we have the joy of having experienced the unforgettable magic of The Adventures of Harry and Paul one last time.
