The crazy game : how I survived in the crease and beyond / Clint Malarchuk with Dan Robson.

Malarchuk, Clint, 1961- (author.). Robson, Dan, (author.).

Summary:

"No job in the world of sports is as intimidating, exhilarating and as stress-ridden as that of a hockey goaltender. Standing in the crease facing one-hundred-mile-an-hour slapshots, the entire game riding on your glove hand, standing on your head when necessary -- all job requirements for those wanting to be the best goalies in the world. Now imagine doing that job while suffering high anxiety, depression and obsessive compulsive disorder, and having your career nearly literally cut short by a skate across your neck. This book takes you deep into the troubled mind of Clint Malarchuk, the former NHL goaltender."-- Provided by publisher.
