Bower

by Dan Robson

Johnny Bower came to be known as one of the greatest Toronto Maple Leafs of all time, but he started from humble beginnings. Dan Robson shares the stories of Johnny's life and career, from the frozen rivers of Saskatchewan to the years spent playing in the minors for more than a decade, before joining the Maple Leafs for the team's three consecutive Stanley Cup victories in the early sixties. He spent eleven seasons with the Leafs, playing well into his forties. Bower's legend grew as a beloved Leafs alumni, an icon for his performance on the ice, and his generous heart off of it.
