The Game centers on a snapshot of life with the Montreal Canadians during the 1978-79 NHL season, as the famous Canadian club marched toward its fourth consecutive title. This was Dryden's final pro season and he did it right. This book was well written almost like you were on the ice with the team reading their thoughts and feeling the pressure. This book was an easy read and very attention grabbing.
Ken Dryden took his knowledge of hockey from his days of playing and wrote his thoughts and how the team did with the same feelings he had for the sport itself. I wish he wrote this book so if you didn’t follow hockey or understand how the sport is played you still knew what he was saying. During the story he shares his thoughts and feelings it makes you feel like he just pulled you into his head and could feel everything he was saying as your eyes flowed across the pages.
Ken Dryden shared the highs and the lows in his life in this book and also his team mates thoughts. The team won the championship four straight times naming themselves the number one team in the hockey league. Everybody knew about the Canadians and understood the emotion they put into the sport. He words everything in a way that it hits your heart not bounce off of your eyes as you read. I thought the book was a great book and I tell anybody that likes to read sport books to read it. This book isn’t just words on a page it’s a life lesson hidden between each word in the book.
