The third book in an annual visual celebration captures the power, speed, and grace of professional hockey.

What defines one National Hockey League season from another are those moments—the record-setting goals, the stunning saves, the thrilling overtime victories—that flash before the eyes of hockey fans. Reflections 2009 gathers together the highlights of a year’s worth of hockey memories, offering a spectacular pictorial chronicle of the 2008–09 NHL season.

Relive the season by poring over images of Sidney Crosby, Patrick Kane, Alex Ovechkin, Jarome Iginla, Evgeni Malkin, Miikka Kiprusoff, Tim Thomas, and many other stars of the NHL®. Feel the chill as you revisit the 2009 Bridgestone/NHL Winter Classic®, the League's historic outdoor game held in Chicago’s storied Wrigley Field which turned the park for a day into the world’s largest backyard rink. From the first drop of the puck to the hoisting of the Stanley Cup®, it’s all here. With thrilling photos, an introduction that outlines the high points of the season, and a full section of year-end statistics, Reflections 2009 captures the speed and strength, the emotion and excitement of hockey played at its highest level.

“This book has 150 or so of the best shots you’d want to see.”—New York Times online on Reflections 2008
