Mancuso takes readers on a tour that has seen the "East Coast Hockey

teams across North America.
The book has more than 200 photographs and interviews with league founders
Henry Brabham and Bill Coffey as well as former commissioners Patrick J.
Kelly and Richard W. Adams and current commissioner Brian McKenna. The
interviews help provide insight into the important role that the ECHL
played in minor professional hockey in North America, introducing it into
four states and 25 cities while returning it to 21 other cities including
the historic expansion that added seven West Coast teams for the 2003-04
season.
The author profiles 50 of the most outstanding figures in ECHL history as

greatest ECHL head coaches that have moved up the professional ranks.
Mancuso has written eight books on minor professional hockey including
"Hockey In Charlotte" with ECHL Commissioner Emeritus Patrick J. Kelly as
well as countless articles on minor league hockey teams and league.
