Description

Scoring is up. Fan interest is up. Pinpoint passing is up. Goonery is down. The metamorphosis in hockey has been astonishing and promises to be even more so as changes continue to filter through the game. As the great Jean Beliveau said, the game is once again being played the way it is supposed to be played. In The New Game, media commentator and lifelong hockey fan Steve Paikin examines the many aspects of Canada’s favourite sport, addressing the major changes that have taken place in the game of hockey.
