Description

The bestselling story of a true warrior’s toughest battle, now in paperback
     It gave the impression as though nothing could stop Jordin Tootoo on the ice. The captain, a fan favourite, a star in international competition, Tootoo was once at all times a leader. And when he was once drafted by Nashville in 2001 and made the Predators out of camp in 2003, he became a leader in differently–as the first player of Inuk descent to suit up in the NHL.
    The entire challenges and pressure would have been more than enough for any rookie, but Tootoo faced something far more difficult: the tragic loss of his older brother before his first shift for the Predators. Though he played through it, Tootoo suffered from some of the same problems that have plagued such a lot of people from his community. In 2010, he checked himself into rehab for alcohol addiction. It gave the impression as though a promising career had ended too soon.
     But that isn’t the way Tootoo saw it and not the way it would end. Told in Tootoo’s bold voice, with contributions by Stephen Brunt, arguably probably the most best sportswriters, All the Way is the searing, honest tale of a young man who has risen to each and every challenge but all too nearly fell short in the toughest game of all.
