By the author of the bestselling Hockey Hall of Fame Book of True Stories.

Everyone who follows popular sports has a question... to be answered, debated or confirmed. Sometimes the question promotes a whole new story that leads to another...

The Mammoth Book of Hockey Trivia is loaded with hockeyfacts and history by its master documentor, Eric Zweig.

This book has all that you'd expect and much more! Top scorers, great goaltenders, dominant defensemen, the origins of NHL "original six" teams and their forerunners, the expansion teams that changed the game to a faster style and the European players that changed how hockey is played at every level.

And how great competitions between teams created "one year wonders,"and how great dynasties were formed, won -- and lost.

But there is more: Where did "Newsy" Lalonde get his nickname? When did Bobby Hull lose his hair and get a toupee? What was the showdown between Jacques Plante and his coach Toe Blake, that changed the face of goaltending? Were Mr Hockey and Mr Elbows the same player? Before he started a doughnut company who was the strongest player in the NHL?

The MammothBook of Hockey Trivia is packed with history, statistics, quotes, funny stories and the heartbreak of losses and injuries... And almost every fact that what one could want to know about the teams, the players and the game.

Each of the 400 pages has sidebars and fact-highlights in full color, to catch the eye and entertain the debater who wants quick facts. But there are also full histories of teams, players, coaches and reporters who were --and are -- part of the universe of people who played the sport of professional hockey -- and have an interesting story to tell.
