Another Thrashers Blog

This one written by former Thrashers beat writer John Manasso, author of Season of Loss, Lifetime of Forgiveness: The Dan Snyder and Dany Heatley Story, a book I remember being so engrossed by I read it in a single night. The now-poignant details on the young Ilya Kovalchuk waking up to the fact the Heatley-Snyder horror made the Thrashers "his team" were the best thing in the book, in my shy and retiring opinion...perhaps I should say they were my Favorite Part. Anyway, good writer, worked for something called "the Newspapers" for many years and knows all about the Thrashers! Check it out.

Relax dude, I'll return it.

Seems like I need to return another book...oh yes, that priceless hardback copy of W.H. Auden's "Book of Commonplace Phrases" that I borrowed from one Mikael Mickan six years ago.

I had forgotten all about it actually. As long as books are returned within a decade I'm normally good. Did you read Manasso's take on the Heatley thing (on his blog)? Interesting stuff...
