From the bestselling author of Tales of a First-Round Nothing: My Life as an NHL Footnote (Toronto: ECW Press, 2014) comes a new collection of biographical stories about what life for Terry Ryan has been like both in and out of professional hockey. "There are few storytellers in the game of hockey better than Terry Ryan. Terry is raw. Terry is real. The subjects Terry writes about are raw and real. They can be funny, and they can be serious. You’re about to read not just about hockey fights, but what it’s like to get absolutely zonked right in the eye with a nasty punch from one of the hardest hitters in National Hockey League history. Why in the hell would you fight a guy without holding a grudge? Well, Terry is going to tell you why. You’re also going to read about anxiety and depression and post-concussion syndrome—what caused it, how real the pain is, the struggle. You’ll be thrilled with tales and adventures that even the Dos Equis man would admit he could never experience. Yes, it is true—Terry Ryan is actually the most interesting person in the world. He even manages to fit Socrates into the following pages. How TR is that?" — From the Foreword by Ken Reid.
