Catch 22: My Battles, in Hockey and Life

Autor Rick Vaive, Scott Morrison
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 noi 2021
In the storied history of the Toronto Maple Leafs, no player scored fifty goals in a season until Rick Vaive in 1981-82 - and he did it three years in a row. So why isn't his number 22 hanging from the rafters of the Leafs' rink and his name as revered in Leafs lore as more recent stars like Gilmour, Sundin and Clark? You could blame it on a team that lost far more than it won. You could blame Harold Ballard and his erratic ownership. You could blame the fans, the media...but Rick Vaive doesn't blame anybody. Life is too sweet for regrets, but learning that lesson can sure be one hell of a ride.
