In this best-selling timeless classic, Peter Gzowski recounts the 1980-81 season he spent travelling around the NHL circuit with the upstart Edmonton Oilers. These were the days when the team was on the edge of greatness and about to take it all and become the hockey dynasty of the '80s. It's amazing to look back at 1980-81 and consider that some of the game's greatest players came together on a young team and quickly blazed their way into the record books and the consciousness of a nation. This is also a book about hockey's magnificent history, about Morenz, Richard, Howe, Orr, Hull . the men whose rare and indefinable genius on the ice exemplified the speed, grit, and innovation of the game. The Game of Our Lives is unlike any book ever written in the annals of hockey. It weaves together the elements of the game, both past and present, and presents an intelligent and moving account of why hockey means so much to so many.
