Description
The great game of hockey has borrowed (and in some cases, invented) some curious terminology to describe the action on and off the ice.
The Great Canadian Hockey Phrase Book is a guide to these and many more commonly used hockey-related sayings and terms. The three hundred hockey phrases included here will be sure to enlighten and entertain readers unfamiliar with hockey jargon as well as die-hard fans looking to sharpen their hockey know-how. The Great Canadian Hockey Phrase Book is a lesson in hockey itself, told through some of the game's most memorable vocabulary.
