About this ebook
The National Hockey League was in trouble after a strike cancelled the 2004 season. Fans were looking for new heroes--and along came Alexander Ovechkin and Sidney Crosby! These two athletes battled for top rookie honors and both set scoring records. This book tells how they rose from very different backgrounds to set the hockey world on fire.
