Thoughtful, poignant, honest. Just the way Jack Falla always wrote. Falla recounts family moments on the ice and the stars of the Montreal Canadians with the same thoughtfulness and tenderness. This is a book that will be truly appreciated by those who grew up on the skating pond or the hockey rink.
