Publisher's Synopsis
Rory might have chalked it all up to one of those days, except that one day led to another just like the one before. It all started with the neighbor's dog soiling his yard and doing so the day of his recreational league hockey championship. While this was something most goalies would likely consider a bad omen, one thing Rory had going in his favor was that he didn't believe in bad luck. Nonetheless, his knee jerk reaction to this simple crisis starts a chain reaction of personal disasters touching every aspect of his life from the business he owns to his marriage. Before all is done, he'll find himself questioning his priorities, motivations and even his beliefs. This is the often hilarious, sometimes touching, always ringing true to life tale of Rory's misadventures in life, death and hockey . . . Scott Noble, acclaimed author of Hockey for Weekend Warriors, makes his fiction debut with Speaking of Life, Death, and Hockey. His long anticipated novel is bursting at the seams with humor as his readers might expect. They might expect the action, but the simple universal truths that lie at the heart of this story are what make it simply a truly surprising and fulfilling read.
