This week, host Jason Jefferies is joined by Pat Pickens, author of The Whalers: The Rise, Fall, and Enduring Mystique of New England's (Second) Greatest NHL Franchise, which is published by our friends at Lyons Press. Topics of conversation include the heartache of losing a favorite team, the resurgence of the Whalers brand, "Brass Bonanza", hockey as a welcoming sport for fans and journalists, Ron Francis, whether the Whalers needed to move to North Carolina to win a Stanley Cup, whether the NHL will ever return to Hartford, and much more. Copies of The Whalers can be ordered here with FREE SHIPPING.
