Synopsis

Relive the Calgary Flames' greatest moments with never-before-told stories from the ice, locker room, and press box. As the radio voice of the Calgary Flames from 1980 until his retirement in 2014, Peter Maher has witnessed more than his fair share of Flames action up close and personal—from the 1989 Stanley Cup championship to the individual brilliance of stars like Lanny McDonald, Al MacInnis, Theo Fleury, and Jarome Iginla.

Through singular anecdotes only Maher can tell as well as conversations with current and past players, If These Walls Could Talk: Calgary Flames provides fans with a one-of-a-kind, insider's look into the great moments, the lowlights, and everything in between.

For Calgary Flames fans and hockey enthusiasts who crave behind-the-scenes stories and a deeper connection to their team, this nostalgic, exciting, and humorous journey through Flames history will:

• Transport you to the heart of the action with vivid play-by-play accounts.
• Reveal untold stories from legendary players and coaches.
• Offer a unique perspective on the team's culture and its impact on the Calgary community.

Get ready to experience the Calgary Flames like never before, with a book that captures the spirit, passion, and unforgettable moments that have defined this iconic franchise. Foreword by Jarome Iginla.
