100 Things Penguins Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die

Hey all. I confess, marketing and self-promotion aren’t my thing. But I’d like to toot my own horn a little and tell our faithful PenguinPoop readers about my new book that’s slated for release this month.

Actually, it’s not new, but rather an updated spin on my second book…100 Things Penguins Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die…originally published by Triumph Books back in 2011.

Needless to say, a lot’s changed in the interim. The revised version boasts 13 new “things,” including tales from our back-to-back Cup runs and features about Patric Hornqvist, Phil Kessel, Kris Letang, Matt Murray, Jim Rutherford, Mike Sullivan and the “HBK Line,” among others. There’s even a shout-out for my favorite place to watch a Pens game…the Pennsbury Pub & Grille.

The book contains 21 new sidebars as well, ranging from Marc-Andre Fleury’s emotional homecoming, to the NHL’s (and Mario Lemieux’s) greatest moment, to fun stuff like the “Traveling Jagrs.”

Existing features on stars such as Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin have been enhanced and updated, too.

100 Things Penguins Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die would make a great Christmas gift for you or that special Penguins fan in your life. Beginning November 13, it’s available at all major bookstores, including Barnes & Noble, and online at sites such as Triumph Books, Amazon and Walmart.
