Download or read book The Greatest Game written by Todd Denault and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2011-10-04 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This game wasn't about money, points, or trophies. Instead it was played for pride, both personal and national. It was a confrontation twenty years in the making and it marked a turning point in the history of hockey. On December 31, 1975, the Montreal Canadiens, the most successful franchise in the NHL, hosted the touring Central Red Army, the dominant team in the Soviet Union. For three hours millions of people in both Canada and the Soviet Union were glued to their television sets. What transpired that evening was a game that surpassed all the hype and was subsequently referred to as "the greatest game ever played." Held at the height of the Cold War, this remarkable contest transcended sports and took on serious cultural, sociological, and political overtones. And while the final result was a 3-3 tie, no one who saw the game was left disappointed. This exhibition of skill was hockey at its finest, and it set the bar for what was to follow as the sport began its global expansion.

Book excerpt: A tribute to the larger than life story of a hockey icon and hero. The hockey world mourned when Pat Quinn died in November 2014. Tough guys sobbed. Networks carried montages of Quinn's rugged hits, his steely-eyed glare, and his famous victories. Quinn made a few enemies over the years, but there was no one who didn't respect the tough working-class kid who had fought his way to the very top of the hockey world. He had butted heads with superstars, with management, and with the league itself. And he had also succeeded at every level, finishing his journeyman's career as the captain of an NHL team, then quickly emerged as one of the best coaches in the league. He gathered executive titles like hockey cards, and done things his own way, picking up a law degree along the way. He was brash, dour, and abrasive--and people loved him for his alloy of pugnacity and flair, his three-piece suits and cigars, his Churchillian heft and his scowl. In the end, the player who would never even have dreamed of being inducted into the Hall of Fame was the chair of the Hall's selection committee. That is Quinn's story: an underdog who succeeded so completely that his legacy has become the standard by which others are judged. Told by bestselling author Dan Robson, and supported by the Quinn family and network of friends, Quinn is the definitive account of one of the game's biggest personalities and most storied lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s been more than fifty years since Wilt Chamberlain began excelling on a Philadelphia basketball court. After his rookie season in the NBA, he broke a slew of league records and became one of the most revered professional athletes in Philadelphia history. Yet Chamberlain is not the only star to earn the praise of the dedicated fans of Philly sports. Mike Schmidt, Bobby Clarke, Reggie White, Joe Frazier, and Charles Barkley are among other sports stars held in high regard in the City of Brotherly Love. Philadelphia Phenoms ranks and details the achievements of the top twenty athletes across the various professional sports teams in the history of Philadelphia sports. Eric Karabell focuses on the legends that helped make Philly the fantastic sports town it’s become by speaking to the greats themselves as well as to the writers and broadcasters who chronicled their remarkable achievements. This book is perfect for fans who plan their commitments around the schedules of the Phillies in spring, the 76ers and Flyers in winter, and the Eagles in autumn.
