On one level, this is the personal story of Theoren Fleury, the diminutive captain of the NHLs Calgary Flames. On another level, this book examines how a pro athlete comes to be famous, and what it means. It is a story about commercialism fed by adulation, about power and riches and the presumed and real virtues of the star players who acquire them. On yet another level it is about what Ken Dryden called simply The Game.Theoren Fleury received global recognition during the 1996 World Cup of Hockey by singlehandedly winning two games for Canada and then by playing in his first AllStar Game in the following winter. Physically, Fleury is the smallest player in the NHL, yet, so intense is he, so quick, so skilled at faking and scoring, and so undaunted by the over 400 pounds of onrushing defencemen that routinely bar his way, that his coach and teammates have chosen him to be team captain. He is now a millionaire. He is also an intriguing combination of country boy, quickwitted city kid, ruthless pro athlete, father and family man, and reluctant, softspoken but sharptongued media hero.In Fury, Andrew Malcolm follows Fleury through an entire hockey season. Yet this is more than a fans inside look at a major hockey star: it is also an intriguing, revealing, funny, and exciting look at Canadas game by a gifted reporter and awardwinning writer.
