This book fills that gap by presenting a selection of research focusing specifically on hockey, such as labor relations and player behavior in the NHL, salary determination and player careers, ticket demand and ticket pricing, and emerging topics such as diversity and discrimination. Expanding the available literature dramatically, this book will be an important tool for researchers as well as sports managers, and students at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level. 410 0$aSports Economics, Management and Policy,$x2191-298X ;$v16 606 $aSports?Economic aspects 606 $aLabor economics 606 $aIndustrial organization 606 $aSports Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W52000 606 $aLabor Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W37000 606 $aIndustrial Organization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31010 615 0$aSports?Economic aspects. 615 0$aLabor economics. 615 0$aIndustrial organization. 615 14$aSports Economics. 615 24$aLabor Economics. 615 24$aIndustrial Organization. 676 $a796.069 702 $aFrick$b Bernd$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255045503321 996 $aBreaking the Ice$92217311 997 $aUNINA
