A back-up goalie's hilarious behind-the-mask look at life in the NHL
Jamie McLennan spent twenty years playing professional hockey. Sort of. As the backup for such legendary goalies as Grant Fuhr, Ron Hextall, Roberto Luongo, and Miikka Kiprusoff, he saw everything-except much playing time.

Filled with tales of camaraderie and crazy antics, the book covers 20 years on and off the ice-including McLennan's disastrous meeting with Gene Simmons, accidentally calling Lady Gaga a troll to her face, charging an opposing team's mascot on the orders of legendary coach Billy Smith, and even how he hid a hotdog in his gear for an in-game snack.

- A deeply personal account of life on and off the ice, packed with hilarious personal anecdotes
