3.0 out of 5 stars
Good for hockey nuts, but not the best writing,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Calling the Shots: Memoirs of an NHL Referee (Hardcover)
Great hockey stories and insight into the evolution of modern professional hockey and backroom stories about what hockey referees go through. I like nonfiction and I officiate hockey so this book was a natural. If you're interested in "old time" hockey from the 1960's which is when Bruce Hood started officiating professional hockey or like to get the inside story on the NHL up until the 80's this is a great book. The quality of writing is a little weak but Hood has some great stories about being a referee, traveling around the country, what players and coaches of his era said and how they acted.It's obvious Bruce Hood is a referee and not a writer, although he had some help with the book. Some readers might be bored when Hood wanders a little too far into his personal life but some might enjoy that aspect of the book. |
