Book descriptionI bought this book back in 2004 when it first appeared and thought I had read it, confusing it with a number of books published at the time and especially after Yzermans 2006 retirement, most notably Heart of a Champion (1996). On a lark, I flipped through a few pages and realized I hadnt read it, and next thing I knew I was 100 pages in. And now Im glad I picked it up.At first glance this book is a lot like others about The Captain: he arrived an inauspicious talent taken in the first round, he blossomed into the Number Three scorer in the NHL, he developed into a two-way center, and finally became regarded as a great champion and leader. Standard stuff, yes. But Hunter goes deeper. He is interested in the little things that caused Yzermans ascendance and eventual transformation, rather than a summary that those things did occur. Hunter looks at minutiae like Yzermans conditions in junior, playing for the Peterborough Petes, a team which rolled four lines and focused on balance, on players covering all three zones. He looks at players height, how much a difference an inch or two means in draft value and where a player will end up. Then he looks at the city of Detroit itself, how its being a city in decline in the 80s aided Yzermans development because of its lacking nightlife, whereas a city full of distractions like Chicago, New York, or Los Angeles might have meant disaster, or at least in Yzerman becoming just a mediocre player. In that way, the book reads more like the work of Malcolm Gladwell, something like Outliers in particular, a book in which Gladwell coincidentally looks at junior hockey teams in Ontario. So it isnt the typical sports biography, but rather an anthropological study of what conditions make athletes great. Yzerman, in fact, disappears for long stretches at different times in the book, with players like Ken Linseman coming to the fore. Some might also find the level of detail tedious, but I found it fascinating.Now, what irked me to no end were the occasional lapses in detail, ironically enough. Little things like mistaking Sylvain Turgeon for his younger brother Pierre, the latter drafted four years after the former, and the error in the number of games Pat Lafontaine played (865, not the 1056 listed in the book). That Hunter was so careful in considering this book, mistakes like these popping up is baffling.Still, those things aside, which Ill admit many people would miss, it is an enjoyable read, one which makes the reader think about sports in different ways.
