Product Description
For most hockey fans, the out-of-town scoreboard is as close as they get to experiencing a game in another NHL city. Luckily, Hall of Fame broadcaster Jim Robson was there for thirty years to deliver NHL play-by-play over the airwaves. Appealing to all NHL fans, regardless of location, this book will transport readers back to Jim’s most memorable night in every NHL city.
Hockey Play-by-Play includes tickets, media passes, programs and most importantly Jim’s handwritten game notes so readers can re-live 55 great hockey games stretching from the 1970s to today. For each game, the pulse of the host city comes alive with a broadcast booth view of the play-by-play by one of the best hockey announcers in NHL history.
Jim Robson is the only man in the history of the game to “roll the lines” better than Scotty Bowman…you could always hear the greatest moments coming. Hockey Play-by-Play is as close as you will come to getting your hands on the diaries of every player who made magic.
— Ron MacLean, CBC Hockey Night in Canada host
Hockey Play-by-Play is a great hockey book. As I turn each page, Jim’s game notes take me right back to the action: my rookie year in 1988, our team’s double-OT win in the Saddledome in ’94, and the battle with the Avalanche for first place.
— Trevor Linden, Vancouver Canucks player
Hockey Play-by-Play gives you an inside look at the job of broadcasting NHL hockey from a true expert. Your memories will be fertilized by Jim’s recollections.
— Harry Neale, CBC Hockey Night in Canada colour man
Reader Reviews
Hall of Fame broadcaster Jim Robson delivered blow-by-blow NHL hockey reports over the airwaves for nearly thirty years, and HOCKEY PLAY-BY-PLAY captures these moments of fame, blending visuals such as tickets, programs, and Robson's handwritten game notes with 'you are there' surveys of hockey cities, events, and broadcasts from the 1970s to modern times. It's a keepsake hockey fans - and libraries strong in hockey books - will relish.
