“It was a pleasure to be included as part of this book about Scampy and his friends and life behind the scenes as an official. I had no idea about some of the different things he was up to off the ice, and it offers a fresh perspective on a few of the NHL’s most talked about games and incidents. It’s also a testament to one of the more remarkable individuals ever to be involved in hockey.”
—From the Foreword by Scotty Bowman

“Throughout his career Ray conducted himself with the utmost professionalism and class. His calm demeanor, combined with an ability to react appropriately to any situation are the reasons Scampy leaves the game with great respect and admiration from players and coaches throughout the NHL. He is a great man and a class act.”
—From the Foreword by Steve Yzerman
