What’s up everyone and welcome to another blog here on BlueCollarBlueShirts.com. Off puck drop, I’d like to thank everyone for all the emails/feedback for my last blog, the New York Rangers 2018-2019 season preview. It took some time to put that together, so I’m glad you guys enjoyed it.
As the Traverse City tournament nears a close and with Week 1 of the NFL nearly in the books, we are creeping & inching closer to the start of the 2018-2019 NHL season. Next week’s blog will be my annual NHL season preview, with profiles of all 31 teams, plus all my predictions & thoughts on each team. Keep an eye out for that blog.
All summer long, I have done book review and “Delorean” blogs. You can find all of those blogs in the archives, which are located on the right hand of the site or by checking out the tabs on the menu. For the most part, most of the books I reviewed this summer covered the Emile Francis Era of Rangers. Whether it was Marv Albert, Gilles Villemure, Brad Park, Gump Worsley and in this case Eddie Giacomin, all of these books dealt with the Emile Francis Rangers. In addition, with the exception of the Worsley book, all of these books dealt with the height, and the eventual crash, of the Francis Era.
