"No job in the world of sports is as intimidating, exhilarating, and stress-ridden as that of a hockey goaltender. Now imagine doing that job while suffering from high anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder, and then nearly having your career cut short by a skate across your neck. A Matter of Inches takes you deep into the troubled mind of Clint Malarchuk, former NHL goaltender for the Quebec Nordiques, Washington Capitals, and Buffalo Sabres. Even as a boy, Malarchuk faced such deep anxiety that he missed school and was eventually hospitalized. His OCD affected the way he trained, and he was known for keeping one of the most obsessive fitness regimens among NHL players. When his throat was slashed during a collision in the crease, he nearly died on the ice. Forever changed by the incident, Malarchuk later struggled mightily with depression and a dependence on alcohol that left a bullet in his head and nearly cost him his life."--book jacket.
