From Word of Sport:
The inside story of the 2001/02 Detroit Red Wings' championship season. Taking the reader from the phone calls that produced the dazzling off-season deals to the front lines of the Stanley Cup playoffs, the book is unrivalled in its depth and intimacy of perspective. A fitting tribute to an outstanding team.
From the Publisher:
Take nine future Hall of Fame players, add one coach already in the Hall of Fame and you get the 10th Stanley Cup for Hockeytown.
The Detroit Red Wings won the 2002 Stanley Cup thanks to a star-studded roster. With big names come big egos, big contracts and big management headaches. That's probably why no other team in professional hockey history has boasted such a vast collection of all-stars on the same team.
Hockey Gods: The Inside Story of the Red Wings' Hall of Fame Team by Nicholas J. Cotsonika takes hockey fans into the inner workings of the history-making squad as it captured the NHL title in the final season of Scotty Bowman's legendary coaching career.
Following in the tradition of A Season on the Brink by best-selling author John Feinstein, Hockey Gods unearths the untold stories about the Red Wings' unforgettable run thanks to Cotsonika's unparalleled insider access.
The hard part about the 2002 season wasn't winning games, it was creating the Hall of Fame roster when the toughest faceoffs were in the offseason between agents, general managers and replaced players.
From boardrooms to locker rooms, Hockey Gods takes fans everywhere to reveal the historic construction of the 2002 Red Wings.
