Moving to a new city is hard. Being the new kid is even harder.
When eleven-year-old Jay Noble moves to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, he quickly learns that fitting in won't be easy. At his new school, he faces bullies who make every day feel like a challenge-including one teacher who seems determined to make his life miserable.
Everything begins to change the day Jay steps onto the ice.

But when Jay earns a spot on the Saskatoon Renegades, the pressure rises. The competition is fierce, the bullies aren't gone, and the road to the Provincial Championship won't be easy.
Will Jay's speed, courage, and heart be enough to help his team win-and help him finally feel like he belongs?
