Description

When it comes to our beloved ''good ol' hockey game,'' humour abounds in Canada. The Hockey Joke Book shows you just how funny the sport, its teams and its toothless players can be: * Q: What do the Ottawa Senators and the Titanic have in common? A: They both look good until they hit the ice! * Q: What's the difference between the Calgary Flames and a bra? A: A bra has two cups! * Four out of five dentists surveyed recommend playing hockey. * Plus so much more hilarity!

About the author

Arpon Basu had said since the age of eight that he would one day make the National Hockey League. Any chance of that happening, came to a crashing halt when, at 15 when he realized he was completely devoid of any talent. He earned a graduate journalism degree from Concordia University and went straight to a sports-writing job with the Canadian Press. The first time he walked into the Montréal Canadiens dressing room as a giddy cub reporter, Basu nearly fell over as it dawned on him that, despite his ineptitude on the ice, he had in fact been telling the truth as a dreamy-eyed eight-year-old.Basu covers sports for the Canadian Press in Montréal and writes a weekly sports column for the Montréal Gazette. He is also editor of Montréal’s South Shore, The St-Lambert Journal.
