Reseña del libro "Hitch, Hockey'S Unsung Hero: The Story of Boston Bruin Lionel Hitchman (en Inglés)"

Distinguished sportswriter Elmer Ferguson called him the "greatest defensive" defenseman of his day. The NHL's revered chief referee Cooper Smeaton ranked him ahead of his defense partner, Eddie Shore. Legendary manager of the Boston Bruins, Art Ross, wouldn't sell him "at any price." And yet he goes unrecognized by the Hockey Hall of Fame.Lionel Hitchman, or "Hitch," played 12 seasons in the NHL. First with the Ottawa Senators, helping them to a Stanley Cup win, and then with the Boston Bruins for ten years. As the Bruins' captain and first "money player," Hitch led them to their first Stanley Cup final and championship and to the NHL's best winning point percentage of all time.His hockey stats belie his real contribution to the success of the Boston Bruins. Hitch was the last original Bruin and the first to have his sweater retired. After his playing career, he went on to coach in the Boston system for several years before parting ways with the franchise.Hitch, Hockey's Unsung Hero, is the story of an unheralded "superstar," the times he lived through and the fascinating people who helped shape his character and life choices. It is told through the "scribes" of the day with interjections by some notable people who knew him well. A few family tales are revealed, including one that helps explain Hitch's absence from hockey's highest shrine.
