Waste (or waist) of time Jun 23, 2000
My title says it all. There were so many spelling mistakes and/or typos (including the one above in the bio of Tie Domi) that I gave up half way through the book. If the author and/or the publisher couldn't bother to produce a quality book I couldn't be bothered finishing it.

Not what i expected May 12, 2001
In the rough and tumble world of hockey what Berger produces is a fluff piece. I wanted to know what life was like on the road for an NHL team during a season but all i got from it was Berger's panoramic views from the window seat in the airplane. Who gives a crap what the city skyline was like? Instead of offering us a hard hitting account, he offers us with buddy buddy schmoozing with a couple hockey players and the coach. It was obvious that the players didn't want him around. Hardly ever did Berger give us accounts of him being with the players hangining out after the game or on days off. The closest thing to it was talking with Doug Gilmour on the street but he left in a hurry to go see his momma.(I thought he was supposed to detail the players and the team not his momma.) If i was going to request access to cover a team, i would lay down what i wanted to accomplish for the book and if i couldn't come to an agreement with the team, then i wouldn't produce a fluff piece just to let the world know i was around some hockey players. If Berger's goal was to remain buddies with the players and management, then what he should of done was chronicle another team not so close to his heart.

This book is BEYOND brutal! Jun 17, 1999
This is what happens when a radio reporter tries to write. Never have I read a more boring book in my life. Here's some typical portions from the book: "I got up. I ate breakfast and read the newspaper. There was a story about so-and-so. Then I went to the rink for practice. I talked to so-and-so about the game that night. Then I went back to the hotel. I was bored, so I went to a movie. When the movie was over, I went back to my room, grabbed my things and went to the rink." It goes on and on like that. Really, folks, give this subject to someone who can actually WRITE and tells you about all the drinking and #$%@?! that goes with hockey people when they travel AND THEN you will have a book! I covered the NHL for a long time. I know of what I speak.

::yawn:: Jun 13, 1997
What a huge disappointment this book was. Berger has such an interesting topic to start off from (travelling with the Leafs) but he ends up babbling about senseless details. Berger subscribes to the idea that he doesn't want to write a kiss-and-tell expose' on the inner workings of a team. Thats fine, but instead we end up with him droning on about how the flight into LAX comes in from the Pacific ocean, and then you can see the coast, and then the smog, and then more lights. And then it was a bumpy landing.
And then I put the book down.
There's plenty of other good books which actually relate good hockey anectdotes without getting into the players' personal lives. Dick Irvin does a masterful job of telling his stories and Tod Hartje's book is a great inside look at hockey in Russia. Those books have a great flow and excitement to them just like a game. Berger's book is like sitting in the penalty box all night long.
Ninety-nine percent padding Dec 04, 1998
One wonders how Berger defines "life,", since this supposed "inside view of life with an NHL team" in fact consists almost exclusively of descriptions of airports, driving routes, views from hotel windows, and arena color schemes, interspersed with game reports as colorless and cursory as wire-service clippings; he relates almost nothing about what the members of an NHL team do, think, or feel on the road. Berger claims to be respecting the players' privacy, but one soon wonders if the Leafs were even there. Nor is the book improved by being infested with superfluous hyphens and other authorial solecisms, though some of Berger's frequent malapropisms inadvertently provide comic relief from the tedium.
