Description
More than a personal memoir, this book describes the author’s experiences with the players, ownership, and management of the Philadelphia Flyers: one of the National Hockey League’s (NHL’s) premier teams.
For over six decades, Larry Clay has been a fan and keen observer of ice hockey, both in the USA and internationally. He’s also a former coach, administrator, and hockey equipment retailer.
This unique perspective gives Mr. Clay the ability to reveal misinformation (past and present) from several sources (and organizations) concerning the state of ice hockey.
You’ll discover:
- Why the author (and others) faced a shocking battle with Flyers’ former management.
- How the Flyer’s ownership cost the franchise and their fans a dynasty.
- How the Broad Street Bullies Alumni were once nearly defeated by an amateur men’s hockey team.
- Why the author’s association with a former Flyer’s Superstar went bad.
- The horrifying truth about the NHL and the NHLPA (the Players Union) and how much they really care about player safety.
- How the NHL (and government agencies) pushed the worst scandal in hockey history ‘under the ice.’
- When Canada lost ownership of “their game”
Writing in a blunt and direct style, Larry Clay takes you ‘Behind The Orange Curtain’ where each chapter tells a different story. Whether you’re a serious or casual fan of the sport, you’ll never look at professional ice hockey the same way again.
