Summary: A Book for New NHL Fans Only
Review: Sherry Ross presents a keen analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of many current NHL players, bolstering her opinions with catchy diagrams and charts. There are several problems with this book, however, that sophisticated fans of the game might not be able to overlook. One: the author selected only the most talented and popular athletes from each team's roster. A fan looking to learn more about the background and athletic talent of lesser known players will be disappointed. Two: seemingly due to space restrictions, she presents statistics for each player for only the last four seasons or so. So a reader looking for complete statistical information on, say, Wayne Gretzky's entire NHL career would again be disappointed. This book is well suited for those who are just learning about the game and the NHL, but for those with a little more knowledge of the game, there are plenty of other NHL analysis books out there that have a lot more "meat" on them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is a MUST for Fantasy hockey hounds
Review: Simply put, this book covers about 450 of the TOP NHL players. This is a must book for all guys invovled in fantasy hockey.

I have read reviews that state it is not in depth enough with stats and lesser known players, but this book is an A+ of what is meant to be. A solid pro and con of 80% of the NHL's starters.

I love it and buy it every year it comes out.
