Short shifts -- an explosion of surprise "bests." "You can't count the number of times hockey fans have raised the question about their favorite players, teams, coaches- you name it. Inevitably, the discussions ensue because no aficionado is more passionate nor dedicated than the hockey fan. Give a follower of the Rangers, Devils, Islanders, and Flyers a subject for debate and you'll get in return, keen interest and - more than likely - heated debate. The book will not only invite fans in North America's most hockey-intense corridor to debate their favorite subjects but the authors will provide authoritative, substantiated, anecdotal and statistical conclusions; which, of course, will spur further arguments."--Publisher website.
