There's a ton of great bio's on players to read. John Kordic's story is interesting as is Harold Ballard's. I'll post some Ballard stories sometime as they are ridiculous.

My favourite book is called "The Rebel League": the story os the old World Hockey Association.

If you enjoy reading you HAVE to check it out. It has incredible stories as the Minnesota Fighting Saints were the inspiration for the movie Slap Shot. Olgie Ogolthorpe was an actual real person: Bill Goldthorpe. He used to play with numchucks in the dressing room before games.
