Publisher's Synopsis
Gord Stellick has had a dream career in the hockey world. After spending over fifteen years with the Toronto Maple Leafs and a few more with the New York Rangers, he began what has become a nearly twenty–year (and counting!) career in sports broadcasting. And when you′ve been a part of the game from as many angles as Gord has, you′re bound to collect a tale or two. Stellicktricity is crammed with the kind of stories that you get only from a true hockey insider. You′ll hear all about: What it′s like to sit at a table during the NHL draft Why hindsight is 20/20 when trading players How Curtis Joseph joined the Leafs because two guys wanted ice cream The mischievous side of Wendel Clark What it was like to work for the notorious Harold Ballard And all sorts of other cool stuff. Instead of statistics and controversy, Stellicktricity is a celebration of what makes hockey great, the heart and passion of it, and the fun stuff too. This collection of short, bite–sized vignettes is like popcorn for the hockey fan′s soul—you′ll only want more.
