Excellent resources, but 1st edition is full of inaccuracies

I'm one of those schleps who had the misfortune of investing the CDN $70.00+ dollars on this book when it first came out, only to learn that many of the (in particular non-NHL) statistics were inaccurate or missing completely. This is understandable for the very early players, but still, it seems as though more effort should have been put into this initially. I am interested in the old Hamilton Tigers franchise, and prior to getting the book had already done some research into the early careers of some of the players. Right off, I noticed that there were problems with the Leo Reise and Goldie Prodgers listings. These--and no doubt innumerable others--were rectified in the later edition, but that is little consolation for me. I made my investment, and unless I can find the revised edition cheap, I have no intention on blowing more money just to finally get what I should have gotten in the first place. Still, it has been a useful book at times, so it's not a complete loss, I guess.

Not a huge hockey fan anymore but

Damn this book is Flawless it has Olympic stats it has some stats on the old players. The Only thing missing was 1892-1917 stats for players who did not play in the NHA or The NHL. I love the sections on the stats it has the players complete minor league and college stats as well as his Pro stats. It has the place he was drafted and all the transactions. This book has a wrap up of the Draft from 1965-1998 and does a fantastic job at it. The Stats and the Draft coverage is the best.

Why even think "no" about this book?

If you like hockey, hate hockey, or do not know anything about the inarguably-greatest sports ever, then you definantly need this book. It's a great price too, believe it or not, and it's my personal bible. Anything I need to know about hockey is right here, every single player and all.

reviews: page 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Hockey fans have long known that their sport is the coolest game. Now they have a reference book worthy of the game itself. Andrews McMeel Publishing, Total Sports, and the National Hockey League have teamed up to produce Total Hockey: The Official Encyclopedia of the National Hockey League-and it's the book the sport has been waiting for.

Total Hockey is simply the most authoritative, complete, and fact-filled volume ever produced on the game. And it is total in scope, covering not just the National Hockey League in the most comprehensive fashion ever, but also chronicling pre-NHL hockey, minor league and junior hockey, rival leagues, and hockey around the world. And it's as up-to-date as the historic USA women's hockey victory at Nagano.
