Anecdotes from NHLers like Mike Peca, Gary Roberts, Doug Wilson, Brian Campbell, Darren Pang, and many others An inside look at the day-to-day life in the world of junior hockey, including brutal practices, broken curfews, trades, and tirades With a Foreword by lifelong friend, Don Cherry, They Call Me Killer is a fascinating, real-life look at the world of junior hockey and the man who has meant so much to the sport.
Brian Kilrea was the head coach of the Ottawa 67's from 1974-84, then again from 1986-2009 and is currently their General Manager.

He is host of TSN's NHL Draft coverage and was national co-host for CTV/TSN's coverage of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver. James has been nominated for a Gemini six times and has also won TV Guide's "Sportscaster of the Year" award. His work has appeared in The Hockey News , Today's Parent and the Ottawa Citizen .
