Any really good hockey books?
I just finished King of Russia based on a comment here in some thread and found it a really fascinating read. I'm looking for more similar things, not necessarily about one player, but more about hockey culture, different countries coming together for play, things like that.
King of Russia by Dave King. It is Dave King's autobiography about him coaching in the Russian Superleague (turned into the KHL) and the craziness that went on over there. Great easy read that not only clues into the cultural divide, but how a head coach approaches the game.
That might be the worst list I've ever seen.
I mean, they didn't put "The Game" by Ken Dryden on there, widely regarded as one of the best sports books of all time.
A couple of other good ones I've read include
King of Russia - Dave King about coaching in the USSR
The Final Call - Kerry Fraser - Kerry Fraser's book that is full of really good stories from his reffing career.
