Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Hockey isn't a complicated sport--there's twelve guys skating around a rink, whacking away at a piece of rubber, and sometimes it goes in the net.

Families, on the other hand?

The 1970s were a tumultuous time to be growing up in Montreal, with the rise of the Quebec independence movement, the coming to power of the Parti Québécois, many Montrealers migrating to Toronto, the 1976 Olympics. Disco, free love, and counter-culture revolutions combined with more women entering the workforce and easier access to divorce. Oren Safdie saw his parents break up and get back together again before parting ways for good, but Ken Dryden and the Montreal Canadiens remained steadfast in his life, lifting his and everyone else's spirits by winning six Stanley Cups in nine years.
