Michael Farber and Canadiens great Yvan Cournoyer sign books at Indigo

Sports Illustrated’s Michael Farber and Canadiens great Yvan Cournoyer signed copies of SI’s The Hockey Book last Friday at the Indigo on McGill College Avenue. The book, which came out Oct. 5, looks at hockey from its 19th century beginnings to now. But it isn’t limited to just the NHL; Olympic hockey, the World Hockey Association, international hockey, women’s hockey and university hockey all get ice time. Farber once wrote for the Montreal Gazette and now does sports commentary on CJAD 800 and TSN. Cournoyer won 10 Stanley Cups with the Canadiens, a record surpassed only by Henri Richard, who has won 11. He now serves as one of the team’s five ambassadors.
