Ken Hitchcock Head Coach of Columbus Blue Jackets

Product Description
This book is about the players, games, and moments that have made the New York Rangers organization what it is today. Frank Boucher and the first Stanley Cup. Mark Messier's Game 6 miracle. Rod Gilbert. Emile Francis. Mike Richter. Brian Leetch. The stories behind all these famous names come alive on the pages of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: New York Rangers. More than just a tribute to success, this book offers the warts-and-all tales from the insider's viewpoint that real fans want. As they relive these memories, Rangers fans--young and old, bandwagon jumpers, and New York natives--will be reminded why they're proud to support one of the NHL's great franchises.
This is one of the best memoirs I've ever read. Actually, it's one of the best books I've ever read. I've read a lot of memoirs and biographies, and this one is brutally honest -- heartbreakingly so.
Theo Fleury's book contains many stories. It's the story of a Canadian who grew up poor on the prairies and clung to his dream like a lifeline. It's a story of a broken, lonely childhood plagued by demons and abuse. It's a story about the drive to be the best at a particular sport. It's a story of addiction to booze, drugs, and sex. It's a story of both dizzying success and financial failure. But most of all, it's a story about what it means to be human and what it's like to live in constant pain...and to find relief in things that only make matters worse.
Anyone who loves hockey (especially the Calgary Flames) will love this book. Ditto anyone who's been abused or anyone who struggles (or struggled) with substance abuse and suicidal impulses. Theo has written a book for both sports fans and those who don't care about sports. His story is painful, but it deserves to be heard. And hopefully it will help anyone who struggles with the same issues that affected him.
