Game Change: The Life and Death of Steve Montador, and the Future of Hockey

Shortlisted for the BC National Award for Canadian Non-Fiction

A Globe and Mail Best Book

From the bestselling author and Hall of Famer Ken Dryden, this is the story of NHLer Steve Montadorâ€”who was diagnosed with CTE after his death in 2015â€”the remarkable evolution of hockey itself, and a passionate prescriptive to counter its greatest risk in the future: head injuries.
Â
Ken Drydenâ€™s The Game is acknowledged as the best book about hockey, and one of the best books about sports ever written. Â Then came Home Game (with Roy MacGregor), also a major TV-series, in which he explored hockeyâ€™s significance and what it means to Canada and Canadians. Now, in his most powerful and important book yet, Game Change, Ken Dryden tells the riveting story of one playerâ€™s life, examines the intersection between science and sport, and expertly documents the progression of the game of hockeyâ€”where it began, how it got to where it is, where it can go from here and, just as exciting to play and watch, how it can get there.
