A True Inside/Behind the Scenes View of Hockey Scouting and Drafts

If you are a hockey fan, I HIGHLY recommend this book. It shows you what teams go through to get the best players, and what players go through to be selected. Gare Joyce is a fantastic writer. He captures the inner workings of the hockey world like no one else, to date. I enjoyed this book from the preface through the acknowledgements.
