Northern Star
by Lorna Schultz Nicholson
It seems Peter Kuiksak’s star just keeps rising. This young hockey hero from the Northwest Territories is the top player in his league, pursued by agents, and something of a celebrity in Edmonton. But being the centre of attention isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Inspired by the career of NHL star Jordin Tootoo, Northern Star continues this player’s journey, started in Roughing and Against the Boards, toward hockey greatness.
