From bestselling author and Hall of Fame player Ken Dryden comes the unparalleled life story of the greatest coach in hockey history, Scotty Bowman. Universally acclaimed as the best coach in hockey and one of the finest in all sports, Bowman holds records for the most wins and Stanley Cups as a head coach, being the only NHL coach to lead three different teams to championships. While he has witnessed hockey's greatest players and knows what makes a team successful, little is known about the man behind the legend. Dryden takes us inside Bowman's mind, exploring his childhood in Verdun, Quebec, his teenage years at the Montreal Forum, and his rise as a hockey strategist following the legendary Toe Blake. Interwoven with Bowman's life story are profiles of the eight best teams in NHL history, as he shares what sets them apart. In a competitive twist, these teams are pitted against each other in a winner-take-all tournament, where Bowman will determine which team is the greatest in NHL history and explain why. This exploration not only highlights Bowman's remarkable journey but also offers insights into the essence of hockey excellence.
