I was reading a book called "Canada On Ice - 50 years of Great Hockey". It's a compilation of MacLean's hockey articles going back to the 40's. It's been quite a good read because it allows you to get more insight into what perceptions were at the time of the article.
My question is about Lindros. In an article from 1991, it mentions that he used to practice with kids that were 17-19 when he was 15. That is not hard to believe at all, but I remember it mentioning that he "rode to practice on a unicycle while carrying his equipment." I read it over a few times and I see no attempts at sarcasm or a joke. It appears that they're stating this as fact. Considering this is the first I've heard of it, I think it has to be false. But you never know... back in 1991 Lindros could do anything.
Your thoughts?
