Since the NHL's founding on November 26, 1917, hockey has become a global favorite. Following the closure of the National Hockey Association (NHA), the NHL emerged as a cornerstone of the sport. Among the many teams that have existed, six are celebrated as the Original or Traditional Six: the Montreal Canadiens, Boston Bruins, New York Rangers, Chicago Blackhawks, Toronto Maple Leafs, and Detroit Red Wings. In this work, Lew Freedman invites readers to explore the NHL's origins and its evolution. The book is organized into six sections, detailing the histories and narratives of these iconic teams that embody the league's spirit. It covers their formation, early challenges, and contributions to the game's development. This work appeals to both devoted fans and casual observers, offering insights into how hockey transformed into one of the world's most entertaining sports.
