Summary:
"An
inspiring
volume of
stories
about Canada's most beloved sport-hockey-and the
everyday
heroes
who embody the spirit of the game and help shape its future, from the pros who compete in NHL arenas to the dreamers and fans who play on backyard rinks. What does
hockey
look like today in Canada? Who is changing the game? Canadian broadcasters Bob McKenzie and Jim Lang bring together players, from youth
hockey
to the NHL, and the people who support them to show us what
hockey
means to them. Meet Philadelphia Flyer Wayne Simmonds and Paralympian gold medalist Greg Westlake, who wouldn't be at the top of their sport without the never-ending support of their families and communities. See how they're giving back to show young
hockey
hopefuls that anything is possible. Read about players like Ben Fanelli, who overcame catastrophic injury to keep playing the game he loved and is using his story as a platform to help others, or the renowned Canadian neurosurgeon Dr. Charles Tator, who is leading the charge to protect athletes from the dangers of brain trauma and concussion. From
hockey
commentators Andi Petrillo and Harnarayan Singh, who broke down barriers to be on air, to Karina Potvin, the youth
hockey
coach welcoming Syrian boys and girls to Canada by introducing them to our national pastime, these are the
stories
of
everyday
hockey
heroes-those who defy the odds, advocate for inclusion, and champion the next generation of
hockey
. From small-town rinks to big city arenas across the country, this collection celebrates everyone who loves our great game. Heartwarming and entertaining,
Everyday
Hockey
Heroes
is a must-read for every
hockey
fan."--From publisher.
