The Hockey Hall of Famer from Kingston Ontario played for seven teams over his twenty-year career netting 450 goals and 964 assists during the regular season and another 188 points in the playoffs making him one of the highest-scoring centres of all time. Gilmour played a big role in the 1989 Stanley Cup victory scoring the winning goal for the Calgary Flames. Perhaps most famously he led the Toronto Maple Leafs to multiple winning seasons and in 1993 took them to the brink of their first Stanley Cup final in decades only to lose out on one of the most controversial calls in hockey history. --In Killer Doug Gilmour bares all about his on- and off-the-ice exploits and escapades.

Moyle Clay; Foreword By Rosemarie Pleasant
Sam Langford: Boxing's Greatest Uncrowned Champion -by Clay Moyle Boston Tar Baby Boston Terror and Boston Bonecrusher / Black Canadian Boxer from Weymouth Nova Scotia
Seattle Washington: Seattle WA: B&H / Bennett & Hastings Publishers2013 1st Revised and Corrected Edition First Printing 2015. -------------trade paperback about 6w x 9h inches a Near Fine example feels unread 442 pages b&w photos Jack Johnson refused to fight him and Jack Dempsey called him "the greatest boxer" ---"Standing no more than 5' 7" tall Sam Langford was one of the 20th century's greatest fighters. In 1951 the great featherweight champion Abe Attell was asked if Sugar Ray Robinson was the best of all time either as a welterweight or middleweight. He named Stanley Ketchel as the greatest welterweight he'd ever seen and said that as for the middleweights he'd take Sam Langford "the greatest of them all at that poundage." Remarkably the man Attell felt was the greatest middleweight fighter in history fought and defeated many of the leading heavyweight contenders of his day. Over time he matured physically and grew into a light heavyweight then began fighting heavyweights on a regular basis but he was almost always the much smaller of the two combatants. Nat Fleischer founding editor of The Ring magazine called Sam one of the hardest punchers of all time and ranked the little man seventh among his personal all-time favorites "Sam was endowed with everything. He possessed strength agility cleverness hitting power a good thinking cap and an abundance of courage He feared no one. But he had the fatal gift of being too good and that's why he often had to give away weight in early days and make agreements with opponents. Many of those who agreed to fight him especially of his own race wanted an assurance that he would be merciful or insisted on a bout of not more than six rounds." Other leading sportswriters of that era had even higher opinions of Sam. Hype Igoe well known boxing writer for the New York Journal proclaimed Sam the greatest fighter pound-for-pound who ever lived. Joe Williams respected sports columnist of the New York World Telegram wrote that Langford was probably the best the ring ever saw and the great Grantland Rice described Sam as "about the best fighting man I've ever watched." At the time of Sam's induction into the Boxing Hall of Fame October 1955 he was the only non-champion accorded the honor. Many ring experts considered Sam the greatest pound-for-pound fighter in the history of boxing Under different circumstances he might have been a champion at five different weights: lightweight; welterweight middleweight; light heavyweight; and heavyweight. Blind and penniless at the end of his life Sam lived quietly in a private nursing home But when one visitor expressed sympathy for his circumstances Sam replied "Don't nobody need to feel sorry for old Sam. I had plenty of good times. I been all over the world. I fought maybe 600 fights and every one was a pleasure!"

Bolton Ontario: Bolton ON: Fenn Publishing 2010 1st Edition First Printing 2010. ---------hardcover a Fine example in a Fine dustjacket loks new and feels unread signed without inscription by Kerry Fraser 286 pages colour and b&w photos ---"After thirty years as an official in the National Hockey League legendary referee Kerry Fraser has decided to hang up his skates & whistle and enjoy the game from the other side of the boards. Never shy about offering his opinion nor afraid to step in and separate an on-ice fight the 5ft 7inch Fraser is arguably the most respected referee in the history of the game. --Fraser began officiating in 1972 after recognizing that his size would limit his chances as a player. He was introduced to refereeing by former Detroit Red Wing coach and family friend Ted Garvin who told him that the game needs more officials with actual playing experience. Fraser responded immediately with a welcomed understanding of the game and over the course of the 2165 NHL contests he oversawhas shown himself to be an unbiased courageous and sometimes controversial judge. --In The Final Call Fraser uses the games he officiated in his farewell season to relive candid memories from various hockey cities and teams such as the night he was pulled from the ice by the St. Louis police after a threat was made that if he skated out for the third period he would be shot. This wouldn�t be the first or last death threat he�d receive in his career. Fraser offers a colourful behind-the-scenes portrait of Canada�s national game recounting stories of pulling apart enraged 250lb men in on-ice battles confrontations with some of the game�s greatest legends and exposes whiners divers and trash-talkers. Fraser also fully discusses once and for all 'The Missed Call' on Wayne Gretzky in �93 that still has Toronto fans talking. --Fraser provides a highly entertaining honest and sometimes hard-hitting look at the game and its many faces and changes over his record-breaking career.

A poor boy from Northern Ontario who laboured at skating Barilko miraculously found himself playing defence on the hockey team of his dreamsthe Toronto Maple Leafs. Through�five National Hockey League seasons Barilko emerged as the toast of Toronto winning four Stanley Cup championships. On April 21 1951 playing their rivals the Montreal Canadiens Barilko scored the overtime goal winning the Toronto Maple Leafs their seventh Stanley Cup. It was the last game he ever played. Four months later Barilko planned a final fishing trip prior to reporting to training camp in Toronto for the next season. It was a fateful decision as neither Barilko�nor his friend thepilot Dr. Henry Hudson were heard from again. Their small plane was lost prompting�the most massive�aerial search in Canadian history. Eleven years later the remains of both men were finally discovered in the�remnants of their small aircraft a few miles outside of Cochrane Ontario. It wasnt until Barilkos body was found those 11 years later in 1962 that the Leafs again hoisted the Stanley Cup. Bill Barilkos life has been celebrated for better than fifty years. The impeccable shot�taken by Nat Turofsky is the most requested photograph in the archives of the Hockey Hall of Fame. The Toronto Star selected Barilkos Stanley Cup-winning goal as one of the top three moments in Toronto sporting history. In December 2003 the National�Post called Barilkos�1950-51 Leaf team the best Toronto hockey team of all time. And Canadian Juno-wining band The Tragically Hip wrote their song Fifty Mission Cap to celebrate Bill Barilkos legend. Barilko: Without a Trace chronicles the extraordinary story of this immensely popular athlete. Veteran sports writer Kevin Sheas meticulous research provides stunning detail into he life and legend of Barilko. From personal anecdotes learned from his teammates to the personal memories shared by Barilkos sister Anne this book is a poignant telling of one of Torontos most revered sports heroes."--- any image directly beside this listing is the actual book and not a generic photo ///SIGNED ---GUARANTEED to be AVAILABLE///.
