About The Book
In 1967 the Toronto Maple Leafs won the Stanley Cup in a stunning defeat of the mighty Montreal Canadiens in Canada’s centennial year. Thirty-nine years later (and counting), no other Leaf team has been able to do it again. As the years pass, the legend grows. The men who were the Leafs in 1967 — a scrappy group of aging players and unsung youngsters — were the kings of this universe, the last hockey heroes to skate in the world’s most important hockey city. They were the men with the right stuff who enjoyed the perks and privileges that went with it. »Sixty-Seven » is not just another hockey book about that legendary team, but a unique and total look at the contradictions, the legends, the shame and the glory of ’67. Within five years of that ’67 victory, two key members of the team, Tim Horton and Terry Sawchuk, would be dead due to alcohol and drug-related issues. The man who had succeeded Smythe as King of Carlton Street, Harold Ballard, was in jail. The seeds of what would become a horrifying pedophile scandal a quarter-century later were being planted. All that had been built up over the course of decades was in the process of being torn down.
« Sixty-Seven » will tell previously untold stories, funny and tragic, from the inside of that unforgettable dressing room. And beyond the story of the team, it will tell the story of the times, a time of innocence before Vietnam and Watergate, the last year of the Original Six-Team NHL, and the last gasp of the hockey dynasty built by the legendary Conn Smythe. The story of « Sixty-Seven » extends well beyond that of a hockey team that found a way to win.
