The Game by Ken Dryden
4.0
Everything you ever wanted to know about hockey, from the inside of the goalie mask, arguably the best spot on the ice. His rich descriptions of a period of action, the first intermission and the teammates and coaches who have made his time in the sport so fulfilling are amazing, and I will not dispute that this is the best book ever written about hockey.
Sometimes it comes off as stream-of-consciousness rambling, but Ken Dryden is well-spoken/written enough that it's worth reading, and everything has a point or lesson. Also, the end becomes a rant about the state of hockey circa 1983 (overly violent, grounded in physical might rather than the skill of its players, etc.) but overall it's a heck of a life lesson delivered through the sport of hockey.
