Bookroo's summary

Mike Krieger, a calm goalie, lives in his brother Eric's shadow, a rising hockey star. As their parents focus on Eric, Mike's talent goes unnoticed, except by his supportive brother Liam. When Mike is invited to play for Eric's team, tensions rise. An accident jeopardizes Eric's career, and financial woes threaten their farm. Desperate for new goalie pads, Mike risks everything. Can he navigate family dynamics and find a way to shine on his own terms?
