Description
The fastest, fiercest, and most unforgettable legends--a definitive ranking of the 100 greatest modern-day players ever to lace up skates, from the best sports writers on the planet
Hockey is a sport like no other. It requires its players to master the grace of a figure skater, absorb the punishment of a linebacker, and trade the bare-knuckled blows of an MMA fighter, all while chasing a frozen, rock-hard puck that can fly across the ice at over ninety miles an hour.
A game this singular breeds an equally eccentric cast of characters. Now, the world-class journalists at The Athletic, led by Sean McIndoe and Dan Robson, settle the sport's most irresistible debate by counting down the 100 greatest players in modern history--each expertly reported on and vividly profiled. Highlights include:
- Legendary goaltender Dominik Hasek, known as "The Dominator," was immortalized for having a "Slinky for a spine"
- Serge Savard somehow still managed to skate off with seven Stanley Cups despite breaking the same leg twice
- Guy Lafleur's off-the-ice exploits included recording a bizarre disco album
- The unforgettable lives and careers of modern titans like Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, and Alex Ovechkin
Here, hockey's headliners are ranked and their stories told through deep research and one-on-one interviews as only The Athletic can.
Written with a deep love of the game and sure to spark gloves-off debates, The Hockey 100 is the ultimate celebration of the game and its players for millions of hockey fans worldwide.
