A Stanley Cup champion and modern legend of the game, in his own
words MariÁn Hossa’s life is a lesson in the value of
determination and perseverance. Born into a hockey family that
included his father, a former player and coach of the Slovakian
national team, MariÁn and his brother, Marcel, quickly fell in
love with the sport. Before long, they began to display the level
of skill that could lead to a professional career. But the odds of
reaching the NHL from TrenčÍn, a town of 50,000 people nestled
among the mountains of Slovakia, remained long. Determined to
follow their dreams, the Hossas persevered and were each eventually
drafted in the first round. After some outstanding years in Ottawa
and Atlanta, MariÁn moved on to Pittsburgh in 2008, where he
helped lead the Penguins to the Stanley Cup Final against Detroit,
a series his team lost. Prioritizing winning over dollars, Hossa
signed with the Red Wings the following season, where he again
reached the Final only to find heartbreak again, improbably against
the team he had just left, the Penguins. It seemed that perhaps he
would never raise Lord Stanley’s Cup above his head. But Hossa
persevered, refusing to give in. In 2009, he signed with the
Chicago Blackhawks, and played a key role in the team’s dynastic
run the following decade, winning championships in 2010, 2013, and
2015. Then, yet another obstacle appeared in his path: an unusual
and debilitating skin condition that compelled him to retire years
before he’d planned. In this inspiring and
entertaining autobiography, Hossa brings readers inside the
dressing room, onto the celebratory team plane, and alongside one
of hockey’s greatest stars as he makes the biggest decisions of
his career. Also featuring photos from Hossa's personal collection,
this is an essential read for all hockey fans.

This booklet contains answers to the Student Activities Manual and
includes the Lab Audio script for the "Activites orales" and "A
l'ecran " sections.
The revised Student Activities Manual (SAM) provides oral and
written activities that progress methodically from comprehension to
expression. "Prononcez bien " sections focus on a specific phonetic
difficulty that students may encounter in each given chapter. The
SAM now includes a section entitled "Francophones en direct," which
offers recorded interviews representing a wide range of ages,
ethnic, and social backgrounds, and presents various perspectives
on the chapters' topics. Each of the oral segments is accompanied
by exercises that facilitate more systematic development of
listening comprehension skills. "Prononcez bien" voice board
activities are available through iLrn: Heinle Learning Center. The
written activities in the SAM offer practice on every point of
structure in the unit and culminate in a suggested composition that
features a process-oriented writing approach and incorporates
web-based research. A realia-based writing activity completes this
section. In addition, "A l'ecran " sections provide activities
based on the "court metrage" films of the video program."
