"The Peterborough Petes, a junior hockey team in the Ontario Hockey League, are known in hockey circles as the Hockey Factory -- the team has put more players into the NHL than any other. This is a raw and revealing account of roller coaster of a season for the team that has been the launching pad for a record number of NHL stars including Steve Yzerman, Tie Domi, Roger Neilson, Chris Pronger and Bob Gainey. But, victory is never guaranteed. Ed Arnold had unrestricted access throughout the 2012-13 season, offering an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at one of the most-storied hockey franchises in Canada and a season marked by defections, firings, heartbreaking losses and incredible victories. Chasing Hockey Dreams uncovers the world of hockey as rising stars fight their way to the pros. Ed Arnold is the author of Who's Puck Is It, Anyway and Hockey Town.
