Just finished reading it after I had found it in my closet two days ago. It seems to me Dryden had a very good view of the history and flow of the game. It got me thinking: in order for the NHL to return to its glory days, it needs to things:
1)Hockey needs an owner who is willing to take the time to shill out money to create a skilled team. (through scouting and trading, etc.) Not skilled like skilled in the art of being a total goon, but player who have fast legs, endurance, stamina, and a creative mind to pick the game apart as it goes in order to dazzle the crowds. If the player also happens to be a guy that runs around and hits people, more power to him. But i stress that in order for hockey to be successful, it needs to be fluid, and fast
2) Take out the instigator rule. We can't have guys as mentioned above to be tortured so they can't score such pretty goals
