Book Reviews of The Hartford Whalers (CT) (Images of Sports)

Book Review: New England's "other hockey team" beautifully remembered
Summary: 5 Stars

The Whalers rich history is beautifully preserved by Codagnone in a book that is a must buy for any serious hockey fan. The Whalers started their existence in 1972 in the cozy confines of both the Boston Arena and Boston Garden. Competing with the Bruins of the vaunted Orr/Esposito era they more than held their own as they captured the WHA's Avco Trophy behind the leadership of former Bruin captain Teddy Green. Their Hartfod years were marked by the arrival of Gordie Howe with sons Mark and Marty and later highlighted by the play of stars such as Ron Francis, Mike Liut, Kevin Dineen, Blaine Stoughton and Chris Pronger among others. This richly illustrated tale pays respect to an underdog franchise that finally gained Stanley Cup glory in 2006 as the Carolina Hurricanes.
