"A non-stop thrill ride through the wacky, crazy, and always hilarious 1970s NHL. Buckle up for this must-have addition to your hockey library. ". - Reg Lansberry, author of 9 Goals: The New York Rangers' Once-in-a-lifetime Miracle Finish. "For anyone who loves hockey, who loves history, and who thinks they know all the stories, this is a must-read. ". - Bruce Boudreau, former NHL player and coachHockey history is much more than a collection of tales about its legends and champions. In this book, you'll discover long-overlooked journeymen, one-game wonders, and backup goaltenders who have their own fascinating stories to tell. Stories of the legendary teams and players take a back seat to the less heralded standouts of the era who shaped the game in surprising ways: Swedish sensation Hardy Åström, the streaky Ross Brooks, the phantom Taro Tsujimoto, the trailblazing London Lions, the fifteen-day Ottawa Civics, and more. Steve Currier delves into the quirky history of forgotten franchises, obscure players, and head-scratching experiments that defined the 1970s. By focusing on the oddities and misfits of the sport, Mucking in the Corners. offers a fresh perspective on hockey's most chaotic decade.
