Product Description
New Haven professional hockey has a long and storied history that dates back to 1926, when the Eagles were an inaugural team in the Canadian-American Hockey League. Nine professional ice hockey teams have called New Haven home, first in the New Haven Arena and later in the New Haven Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Sadly, New Havens long run in professional hockey ended after the 20012002 season. There were many talented players over the years, including Frank Beisler, Emile Francis, Don Perry, Ron Rohmer, John Brophy, Chico Resch, Tom Colley, Frank Never Beaton, Hubie McDonough, Peter Worrell, and Glenn Stewart. Hockey in New Haven is the story of the players, coaches, and teams that entertained generations of fans in the Elm City.

AWESOME BOOK FOR ALL NH HOCKEY FANS April 11, 2008
Although I was only about 7 when I first saw the Beast play in Oct 1997, I absolutely fell in love with hockey at the Coliseum. I've been playing hockey ever since I was 5 and have been playing goalie ever since the age of 7. My favorite goalies were T-Mac and Founts, and when I saw this book for sale I just had to get it. Many of the generations in my family were Nighthawk fans, and I can't wait to share this awesome book with them.
This is a must have for anybody who loves hockey and misses NH hockey, particularly. The only thing that I didn't care about this book was that the newer pictures are in black and white, and there weren't many Beast/Senator photos, but its still an awesome image book. I hope that if these authors have any more Beast photos they will make another book exclusively about the Beast of New Haven. Absolutely an awesome job, great work to the publishers and I recieved it in the mail literally days later from my order. Awesome, awesome stuff, thank you so much for keeping my favorite hockey memories alive.
good memories December 29, 2007
Enjoyed this very much. It not only provided a history of hockey in New Haven but it provided me great memories of what I saw growing up as well as my and my families involvement with the Nighthawks. My whole family and some hockey friends have a copy now.
Great Feedback October 18, 2007
Thank you all for the great support. We believe we put out a great book something for anyone who ever set foot in the New Haven Arena or the New Haven Veterans Memorial Coliseum. This book will bring back great memories and make them last forever
Incredible Minor League Hockey History -Well done, Great pictures! October 18, 2007
Having followed New Haven Hockey since the early 1970s, I was very pleased to find this book. It is very well done. It is loaded with photos, more than most sports books I have read. The history of hockey in New Haven is carefully laid out by the authors and their passion for the game shows in the accompanying text. What makes this book amazing is its incredible depth and the fact that it is the most complete book on a minor league hockey in any city ever done. I highly recommend this book to those with fond memories of hockey in New Haven, either of the New Haven Blades, Nighthawks , Beast or Knights and as a nice gift item for hockey coaches in the area. In my area this book already has incredible buzz with book signings and events in the news and many dedicated fans and hockey players supporting the effort. It is good to see that all that many of us remember has been documented for others to see.
