  By the author of the award-winning best seller, 'The Russian Five.' 
  The 'Grind Line' is one of the most successful units in hockey history, and without peer among so-called fourth lines, for those who insist on numbering them. Kris Draper, flanked by Kirk Maltby and Joe Kocur, and later Darren McCarty, deserve their rightful place in Detroit shoulder-to-shoulder with the Production Line, the most famous forward unit in National Hockey League history: Gordie Howe and Ted Lindsay alongside Sid Abel, and later Alex Delvecchio, four men whose numbers hang from the rafters at Little Caesers Arena. This book argues,  and has the receipts to prove it, that the Grind Line was every bit as important in its era as the Production Line was in the dynastic 1950s. 
  'Those four guys, they made all the difference,' says Scotty Bowman, the Hockey Hall of Fame coach who wrote the foreword to this book

  An ordinary hero doing something extraordinary for her mates.  
  Far from an elite athlete, Alexandra André bounced from one running injury to the next for the best part of five years before deciding to take part in the toughest one- day sporting event in the world. Without an ounce of confidence she could achieve it, Alexandra signed up to do the 2015 IRONMAN Melbourne – 3.8 km swim, 180 km ride, 42.195 km run. 
  Training for the event became more of a journey than she could have imagined. One of great purpose, filled with synchronicities and opportunities. 
  THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY is a compelling sports story and much more. Alexandra’s very real and honest account of the highs and lows of reaching her goal make it remarkable. Her story is engaging and relatable, leaving us not only inspired, but with hope in our hearts, full of wonder for the world of possibility that awaits when we find the courage to test our limits.
