Long description:
The remarkable autobiography of Lou Vairo, the ?Godfather of Hockey,? who helped to propel the game to unprecedented heights in the United States.
Lou Vairo?s impact on hockey in the US is unparalleled. He?s been involved in the sport for over six decades, instilling an innovative style and mindset at all levels of the game. His life is an epic insider?s hockey story, one that travels around the world from the US to Germany, Russia, the Netherlands, and Italy, involving larger-than-life characters and historic moments.
Lou Vairo: The Godfather of US Hockey tells how Lou rose from the roller-hockey streets of Brooklyn to become a force behind the success of American men?s ice hockey. His journey is full of twists and turns, from learning to coach hockey at the most basic level to meeting with some of the greatest hockey minds in the world, becoming a scout with the gold-medal winning 1980 ?Miracle on Ice? US Olympic team, coaching in the NHL and in Europe, and creating USA Hockey?s diversity program which gave access to the game for tens of thousands of American players who would otherwise have been left out.
Lou?s love and passion for hockey shines through at every moment of his story. Through his vision, hard work, and persistence, players and coaches finally received the support they needed to excel on the ice and become a force on the international stage.
