Bearcat Murray: From Ol' Potlicker to Calgary Flames Legend

3.8/5 ( ratings)

An insider's look at Calgary Flames history from beloved trainer Bearcat Murray

Jim "Bearcat" Murray knows what it means to live and breathe Calgary Flames hockey, and he's carved out his own spot in team history as an unforgettable character. The young man from Okotoks who once dreamed of becoming a jockey found his calling as the Flames' longtime athletic trainer, went on to sip beer from the Stanley Cup, and later was unanimously voted into the Hall of Fame.

Murray now reflects on decades of incredible memories, from the Flames' earliest days after moving to Calgary in 1980 to the glory years of Lanny McDonald and Theo Fleury to the madcap sequence of events that inspired a group of Boston Bruin fans to create The Bearcat Murray Fan Club.

Packed with countless unforgettable gems, this rollicking tour of Flames history is essential reading for all fans.
