Publisher's Summary

Skate into the rink with the best in Toronto hockey—newly updated! The glory years for the Toronto Maple Leafs—four Stanley Cups in the 1960s—may be distant memories, but what the team lacks in recent accomplishments is made up for by their history, which is rich in drama, pathos, and, most of all, humor. Figures connected to the Maple Leafs from the 1950s to the present offer their best stories, including some new takes on the team’s legends. Players, coaches, broadcasters, and team executives come together to share a long list of funny anecdotes about their time with the Leafs. Bobby Baun recalls the unprecedented moment in the 1964 Stanley Cup finals when he slammed a game-winning goal into the net while skating on a broken leg. Bob Haggert, a former Leafs trainer, shares his memories of Conn Smythe, the unyielding military man who founded the team. Also telling tales is Jim McKenny, defenseman-turned-forward-turned broadcaster, whose sense of humor is as deft as his skating. Joe Bowen, long the voice of the Maple Leafs on radio and television, is along for the ride, as are Bob McGill, Glenn Healy, Walter Gretzky, and so many more.

Get it right!!

overall I enjoyed the stories, I bought the book to listen to as I drive on my 2 hour trips to work and back.
I was however, almost angry when the narrator had no idea how to pronounce the names of legendary Leafs and NHL alum!!
I picked it because this is a book about my (and mosts) favorite team. Its almost disrespectful that they don't know how to pronounce, not one, but a good percentage of the names in the stories!!😡😡

Great Compendium of Maple Leafs History

The narration was flawed at times but this is a great little listen for every fan of the Blue and White. Recommended

Names

Should have hired a narrator who had some hockey knowledge. Most of the players names were pronounced incorrectly
