Publisher's Synopsis
Dean, being a family man busy with the obligations of a variety of business ventures, still finds his happiest times involved in his passion for coaching and administration of hockey in a small Northern Ontario town. He is not daunted by the conflicts and disagreements that occur over the way he coaches or the way organizations are run. He finds an ally in a young striving singer who comes to town and joins him in his businesses and hockey ventures. Together they bring out the best in their young students and, believe it or not, in their opponents.
"I found it highly entertaining. I really enjoyed the book. Tells behind the scenes of coaching minor hockey. Blue enjoyed it too."
--Don Cherry
"Filane's blood and gut story from Northern Ontario of a Northern Ontario lad trying to get into the cruel, real world of hockey is a true-to-life good read."
--Richard Rohmer
