The hockey world mourned when Pat Quinn died in November 2014. Tough guys sobbed. Networks carried montages of Quinns rugged hits  his steely-eyed glare  and his famous victories. Quinn made a few enemies over the years  but there was no one who didnt respect the tough working-class kid who had fought his way to the very top of the hockey world. He had butted heads with superstars  with management  and with the league itself. And he had also succeeded at every level  finishing his journeymans career as the captain of an NHL team  then quickly emerged as one of the best coaches in the league. He gathered executive titles like hockey cards  and done things his own way  picking up a law degree along the way. He was brash  dour  and abrasive--and people loved him for his alloy of pugnacity and flair  his three-piece suits and cigars  his Churchillian heft and his scowl. In the end  the player who would never even have dreamed of being inducted into the Hall of Fame was the chair of the Halls selection committee. That is Quinns story: an underdog who succeeded so completely that his legacy has become the standard by which others are judged. Told by bestselling author Dan Robson  and supported by the Quinn family and network of friends  Quinn is the definitive account of one of the games biggest personalities and most storied lives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45666269429813,"sku":"ByrdShop_0670069914","price":28.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780670069910.jpg?v=1782426121","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/quinn-the-life-of-a-hockey-legend-9780670069910","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
