In 2026, David is a cynical sports columnist who views history as nothing more than dry statistics and flat data points. Trapped in a hyper-efficient world of social media algorithms and corporate-sponsored arenas, he believes the soul of the game has been sold to the highest bidder. But when an old archivist hands him a splintered fragment of a red pine stadium seat from the legendary Montreal Forum, the modern world dissolves beneath his feet.
Suddenly, David is thrown backward through time, waking up in the suffocating, smoke-filled concourse of the Forum on the fateful night of March 17, 1955—the night of the infamous Richard Riot.
Stripped of his smart glasses and thrust into a sea of sixteen thousand furious French-Canadian hockey fans, David finds himself on the wrong side of a cultural war zone. With NHL President Clarence Campbell walking directly into the lion’s den and a city waiting for the single spark to set Montreal on fire, David’s modern clothes and English tongue paint a violent target on his back.
As the tension reaches a fever pitch and a historical earthquake prepares to detonate, David must navigate a brutal landscape of tribal hatred, systemic division, and a political assembly disguised as a hockey game. Can a man who understands nothing of the raw passion of the past survive the night the city burned?
