- The franchise : the business of building winning teams / by Custance, Craig,author.;
"Team builders make the biggest decisions in hockey, and indeed in all of sports. They set the culture. They are the ones ultimately responsible for whether a Stanley Cup is raised at the end of the season. In the NHL, it all starts at the top. In this book, journalist Craig Custance takes readers behind the scenes of championship hockey culture where the most impactful (and most secretive) leaders in the NHL operate. For over three years, he has journeyed everywhere to get exclusive time with the most powerful people in hockey: an owner's suite, a private championship ring ceremony, a Pennsylvania country club, a Florida pickleball court, and a bookstore in a northern Michigan resort town, among other locations. In total, the owners, presidents, general managers, and executives featured in this book have won twelve Stanley Cups, an Olympic gold medal and, in one case, led a boycott that changed the sport forever. For hockey fans, there are stories behind memorable trades, the biggest free agent signings and insights into how some of the most successful teams of the last two decades were built."--- Subjects: National Hockey League; Hockey players; Hockey players; Hockey players; Success.;
