Customer Reviews

Great history of the NHL, the Cup and more.

This book is pretty amazing. It has all the dates and big players and great lists of what happened and when. It even delves into some of the more finite details like player moves, etc. There are many great pictures in their. The only two things I would change are 1. I wanted to see a detailed map of each of the incarnations of the cup in a flat layout so each inscription could be read. It showed the same close ups over and over. Show me a detailed map. The Hall of Fame has a 3d version of the Cup and that one fails to show all of it as well. 2. I would have combined the year by year sections. There are 2 of them that go through the cup history year by year, focusing on two different aspects. Combine them. Let's update this book to include the Blackhawks 2010 and do it again!
