"Chances are you've heard that hockey is the fastest and coolest game on earth. After all, it is played on ice and players zip around on skates covering 6 to10 m(20 to 30 ft.) in a single second."pg.4
I really liked this book because it taught me a lot about hockey history.My favourite part was when coach Roger Neilson made the mocking "flag" because the ref made some foul calls Roger Neilson made the "flag" as a fake sign of surrender.Eric W. 4
ReplyDeleteI liked how the book blended in with science.How they displayed the science was a totaly different story, they had it like it was a popup ad on the internet but with info.

I thought this book was okay, but it wasn't incredible or anything. I like hockey, but I'm not much into non-fiction books. My favourite part was when it talked about Barilko and how he went MIA after the Leafs won the cup, and we haven't won the cup since. I recommend it to people who like reading sports books.

ReplyDeleteI thouught this book was great because before I had no idea what Hockey was after reading this book I knew more about it. This book is very good for sports lover because the way this autor worte this book was very different from the other non fition books I had read that is because the lay out was very different.

I liked this book because it was intresting and a fun book to read. Before i didnt like hockey, i thought i was boring. NOw i think hockey is a really good and fun sport! I would recomend this book for people who like to read about sports! CLARA
ReplyDeleteI didn't really like this book because I don't like ice hockey. My brother is on a ice hockey team and I go to his games, so I know what hockey is about. I was reading this book and saying "I know this already." This book would be better for people who want to learn and know nothing about hockey.Though I really liked this the stuff about luck!

i realy like this book because i am realy in to hockey.and i can ralate to it. i also can ralate to it because i play hockey
ReplyDeleteI liked this book because it is a great eye opener for kids/people who don't play hockey.
ReplyDeleteThe book is not all about wayne gretzky the hockey player that everyone knows. It shows you some players that weren't in the spotlight as much. I liked this book also because it teaches you the rules and how the game is played specificly not just a snapshot of how its played.

I am personally not a hockey fan but I really liked all the facts in this book like, did you know that Sidney Crosby (also known as "Sid the Kid) had his jersey stolen from him, sometime in 2005? Then it turns out that a fan stole it for his daughter be she wanted one for christmas and he wanted to see his daughters reaction. Luckily it was returned and the fan apologized. This book was awesome and would recommend to hockey fans or people learning about hockey. Now I can show to my brother that I know more about hockey then he does! :)

I thought this book was okay because I wasn't really a hockey fan so this book didn't really interest me but I still learned a lot and I liked the facts. For example, did you know that Jeremy Roenick had a routine that he always stick with before each game.Also like what Nick said this book isn't just based on famous hockey players but also about people that weren't in the spotlight.

I Didn't like Inside Hokey that much. I'm not that big of a fan of hokey. Nina5:)
ReplyDeleteI liked how the writer displayed the info so that I could look around other parts of the book and get more info than just looking at plain text.

I didn't think this book was so good but it had a lot of facts, hints and tips on how to improve on playing Hockey that is if you play Hockey. I would recommend this book who love Hockey and want to try a new sport. Harrison :)
