Pain Killer

- Reviews -

#1 BESTSELLER"This book is at times startling, yet very real and down to earth. As troubled as Brantt was, he was still a great teammate and a player I enjoyed being with. I worked with him in San Jose, Calgary and LA, so I saw him in all phases of his life and his career. I consider him a friend and an ally. Pain Killer sends a strong message. " --Darryl Sutter, former NHL player, coach, and GM"A devastatingly honest account of one man' s struggle with seemingly insurmountable demons. Through a combination of raw talent and hard work, Brantt Myhres finally realizes every Canadian boy' s dream of playing in the NHL only to throw it all away at the mercy of drugs and booze. An enforcer throughout his career, it' s his battle with addiction that proves him to be the ultimate tough guy. Pain Killer is a knockout. " --Will Arnett, actor"I met Brantt when he was working with the LA Kings Organization and he was open about his story from day one. In LA, he was a mentor for the players that found themselves going down a dark path, similar to what he had gone through. It speaks volumes about someone' s character when they can hit rock bottom, pick themselves up, and then help others up: that' s Brantt. This book makes his story accessible to everyone, not just players. I' m grateful for his courage to share and hopeful that it will help many others inside and outside of the hockey world. " --Paul "Biz Nasty" Bissonnette, broadcaster and former NHL player
