Don't Call Me Goon

In pro hockey, enforcers are as popular with fans as the stars who cash the big paycheques. Called upon to duke it out with fellow troublemakers, or to shadow (and bruise) an opponent's top scorer, these men get the crowds out of their seats and the TV fans spilling their beers in excitement. Don't Call Me Goon gives the mayhem-makers their due by sharing their overlooked stories and contributions to the game. Drawing on a wealth of knowledge, research and interviews, Oliver and Kamchen highlights the players who have perfected the art of on-ice enforcing.
