Excellent book! I love books like this. I really enjoyed reading
your book because you get a mixture in here. You get everyone and
I’m happy that you put hockey in here too because a lot of times
people will talk about all time team mates and they’ll mention
three of the four professional major sports, but they’ll rarely
talk about hockey, so I’m glad you put that in there.
