Timberwolf Hunt

by Sigmund Brouwer, illustrated by Dean Griffiths

tagged: hockey, friendship, humorous stories
Description

When the Timberwolves get a new coach, they also get the coach's son. The only problem is that Eldridge Elwell is a terrible hockey player. The team is on the hunt to make the playoffs, and every time Eldridge plays a shift, it hurts the team more. Johnny Maverick is just as angry about it as anyone on the team, until he learns something important about the coach's son.

Also available in French.
