Retired Numbers a Celebration of Nhl Excellence [first edition]

In the storied history of the NHL, many players stand out, and a few become synonymous with their numbers. However, there are some whose skates are so hard to fill and whose stars shine so bright that their numbers are retired to the annals of legend. In Retired Numbers, best-selling hockey author Andrew Podnieks documents 116 players whose numbers have been raised to great heights in arenas across the league. From players who made their mark with one team (Paul Coffey with the Edmonton Oilers) to those who starred in many (Wayne Gretzky with the Edmonton Oilers, the New York Rangers, and the Los Angeles Kings), fans will learn just what made these players so memorable.
