À propos de ce produit

Product Information

A powerful memoir from an NHL heavyweight champion who moved from the dressing room to the courtroom. NHL tough guys all tell the same story. They all grew up dreaming of skating in the big league as stars. Then one day, a coach tells them the only way to make it is to drop the gloves. And every guy says the same thing: I'll do whatever it takes to play in the NHL. Not Stu Grimson, though. When he was offered a contract to patrol the ice for the Calgary Flames, he said no thanks, and went to university instead. And that's the way Grimson has approached his career and his life: on his own terms. He stared down the toughest players on the planet for seventeen years, while working on his first university degree. He retired on his own terms, and went on to practice law, including a stint as in-house counsel for the NHLPA. This has put him in a unique position when it comes to commenting on the game. He's seen it from the trenches, and he's seen it from the courtroom. This puts him in the eye of the storm surrounding fighting and concussions. And he handles that the way he does everything: on his own terms. When Don Cherry called him out on televison, it was the seemingly indominable Cherry who backed down. Hockey fans will be fascinated by his data-driven defence of fighting. But in the end, this is not a book about fighting and locker-room stories. It's the story of a young man who ultimately took on the toughest role in pro sports and came out the other side. Where many others have not.

  • Thoughtful Reminisces of an NHL Enforcer

    Stu Grimson is now a bi-weekly fixture on NHL network whose thoughts and commentary are intelligent and interesting. It's not easy to reconcile what he once was - an Enforcer in hockey's earlier times - with the thoughtful person he is on TV. This book is, essentially, an autobiography of his life in the NHL. His role was to protect his teammates and deliver violent justice to any opponent who would be deserving. He speaks off the others who played this role in the league for their teams, players like Bob Probert, Tie Domi, and Dave Brown among many others, and his confrontations with them, some wins and some losses. (For videos, check YouTube as it has many, many videos of hockey fights in the old days.) Now, if you follow NHL hockey, it's tempting to dismiss these Enforcers as "Goons" ...
