Synopsis
Examines the rise, fall & attempted comeback of big-league hockey, from the resignation of NHL president Clarence Campbell to the games Americanization under commissioner Gary Bettman. Fischler tells it like it is in a brutally frank, first-person style. He has been behind the scenes to watch the hockey wars between the players, owners, executives & union leaders. Fischler spares no one. He takes aim at such icons as Wayne Gretzky, Chris Chelios, Bob Goodenow & Gary Bettman, while saving some salvos for members of the media & NHL officials for being inept & too often biased. Controversial!
