    I have been a Canucks fan since I was seven years old and I am now in my 20s and a greater canuck fan than ever before. I have been waiting for a book like this for over a decade. From the origins of Hockey in British Columbia to the Legacy we have now. I think no one that could have been more fit to write this book than himself Trevor Linden.
